Games purchased using the service currently range from $5 to $60 and include third party hits like Just Cause 2, NBA 2K10, FEAR 3, and more. The severs that render those games are those in Dell’s data centers (OnLive signed a contract with them) and are across the United States. The range of severs means anyone in the mainland US should be able to play OnLive games without any major lag. In fact, Perlman said the most lag comes from the user’s keyboard and mouse. “Most of the latency is not in the Internet; it’s in the last mile,” Perlman said. “Twenty-five milliseconds or more in your monitor, and in your mouse, even up to 50 or even 80 milliseconds.” For those without a keyboard or mouse, OnLive also works on tablets, such as Apple’s iPad.

Minimal requirements for all games include Windows XP or Mac OS X (all games will work on OS X, sans Mass Effect 2), a dual core processor, and either a 32 bit or 64 bit computer.

Expect friendly support for your TV with a micro-console coming later this year.

As if that wasn’t a long enough wait, Amazon Kindle for Mac is now available to download off the Amazon website. The download was quietly released today and is a mere 22MB, Intel Macs only. There’s nothing special – it does what Kindle for PC does and has Whispersync, the full Kindle collection, and that’s about it. Click the source link to download.

Have a Mac? You’ve probably dreamed of doing what Darth Vader is doing to his iMac before! Plus it goes great with Steve and the beachball!

The time: 1987. Steve Jobs sees a beach ball lying around during NeXT’s annual company retreat, and he notices something about it that he would remember to this very day, along with millions of Mac users all over the world.

I wonder what it is… (More pictures after the break.)
