I don't think I like this so much. First of all, you need a very high speed connection to get the full HD gaming and settings. Second, I bet it will cost a lot of money. You figure that the games themselves will at least be the price they are right now, $50 or so. Plus, whatever the subscription fee is. Third, I'm not sure this will lure the actual PC gamers away from their rigs. This might attract people from the console gaming community, but I don't think it will attract the people who invest their time and money into building their perfect rig.

Helpful info. I think netbooks can be a good thing. If all you need them for is web browsing and word processing. I think they are overpriced though. For not much more you could get a competent, full-sized laptop.
