Steam To In-Home Stream(ing)

Most people these days have multiple computers, a fact that obviously hasn't been ignored by Steam.

Already in a closed beta, Steam have a service which can stream a game from your fully specced beast of a PC to your lower-end laptop or even Steam Machine.  Just load up Arkham Asylum Origins in your living room, head to your bedroom and play using your laptop - all of the gaming, none of the lumpy office chair.

 It really is that easy, according to the In-Home Streaming Troubleshooter:

How do I use it?

The Steam In-Home Streaming feature is currently in limited beta, so you must have received a beta invitation via e-mail before you can use the feature.

Once you have received your invitation, you can start streaming in 3 easy steps:

1. Opt into the Steam client beta on two computers.
2. Login to the Steam beta client on both computers with the same account.
3. Go to the computer where you want to play and start playing your game.
