Personal Cloud Gaming like OnLive

Ok this might be totally the wrong place to mention this but I have been playing with a very interesting open source thingy from http://gaminganywhere.org/
Basically this allows you to stream (like onlive) your games from your gaming rig to any other computer over the net.
I know this isn't a VR application BUT it does mean that you can offload the gfx processing to something far more capable, for example I tried to run HL2 on my Slate 7 which doesn't have a chance in **** of running at anywhere decent speeds... however with this program I can happily stream Skyrim and somewhat play it on my tablet
(backpack VR Anyone)
Anyway thought I'd throw the idea out there and see what everyone thought.... It actually works so well I could control Skyrim looking at my desktop using the bluetooth keyboard & mouse connected to my tablet (ok wrong way round i know but still) or you can use mouse from tablet and keyboard from desktop together very strange feeling :S
