The applications run on a remote server so you must have a decent Internet connection and also, this is not available for all the applications in the Ubuntu Software Center, but nevertheless, this feature sounds awesome.

Here's a video I've just recorded so you can see exactly how it works:

Why would you sell your ps3 just because you don't understand how a linux operating system works? Makes total sense bro.
