I read about it this morning and it looks like a great idea. If it could run with Linux, or through Wine, then I'd be really interested as gaming is one of the last few things holding me to Windows.

"To make things even stranger, OnLive will run on just about any PC or Mac through a Web browser plug-in without the MicroConsole."

I think this implies it would run on any machine capable of running the browser plug-in.

I didn't read the article until I got home last night, since I was at work, but ya I saw that... unfortunately I also saw they are planning it to be subscription based. :( I was kind of hoping you'd pay the price of a console and be set but I guess that's not as realistic.
