Shadow offering cloud-based PCs to gamers, but nothing stops you from using these computers as workstations.
There are numerous video game streaming services around these days, and there are remote virtual workstations offered by large cloud companies like Amazon and Oracle. The former are limited to games, whereas the latter cost more than some people might want to spend. But apparently, there is a solution: a cloud-based gaming PC with dedicated storage that can be used to run performance-demanding professional applications. Shadow offers subscription to access a powerful gaming PC in the cloud. Specifications of PCs Shadow offers are well defined and therefore the service provides a certain level of predictability when it comes to performance, yet the actual experience depends on stability of internet connection and ping.
