This only makes Chrome faster until you saturate your remote instance's memory with open tabs. The faster isn't really there. A 16gb machine on your desk would run Chrome just as fast. Technically faster cuz no input lag.

This is like selling a monthly subscription to 16gb of RAM, which you can use only for the web browser.

If this is really the future, and users are willing to pay $300+/yr for 16gb of RAM, device manufacturers could eat Mighty's lunch by selling laptops with dedicated browser RAM.
