Way back in 2009 I helped design and implement basically "Firefox on AWS EC2" - I had YouTube audio and "video" working, in the subwindow, not Fullscreen. It was roughly 5-10FPS, about what you'd get with VNC, with perfect audio.

I had an idea that thin clients were going to be big - and I stupidly pitched ideas for cloud based software to Adobe, Newtek, and Autodesk.

Never gunna do that again.
