Recently I have got some information about an online service called OnLive.
http://www.onlive.com/#1
It is a service that enable people play games remotely, on the cloud.
As far as I know, this is a tool that get a game, play it on a server and
compress and send the screen output to the player.
After seeing that, I though: Oh it is really cool such kind of service and they
should be using a Windows server to do this.
So, in this post I wish to discuss the possibilities to do this kind of thing
happen using Wine.
I think that this should be a great case of commercial use to Wine, since it
enables windows games to be played in Unix environment.
Since Unix is more common on servers than on desktops I think that improving
Wine to run in this situation, could be a good source of revenue and
contributions to our so beloved Wine project.
