Nvidia’s GeForce Now cloud gaming service is launching on Google Chromebooks. GeForce Now is available in beta form on Chrome OS, the cloud-based operating system powering Chromebooks. It transforms distance learning into distance gaming.

Chromebooks are often used in educational or corporate settings, but they are usually underpowered when it comes to playing games. That makes them an ideal target platform for GeForce Now, which does the heavy-duty computing in the cloud and sends video for display on any computer or Android mobile device.
