Any technical minded folk could help me out here but, If you was to start a private match with people from your friends list, and you had say friend A, who is a on a 100meg up/down line ( a box that "would have been used fore dedi purposes ) would this be a legimate workaround although youd need to purchase the game on said machine?
MW2 possible workaround?

- Start date
Why wouldn't it? if it works correctly then it would pick the quickest upload to host.
What if it closes the connections to idle players?
A simple macro on the computer to click now and then?
Your idea assumes the host can run autonomously (i.e. loading new maps, not having to interact at all) and I would be very surprised if this were the case.
Would "friend A" be at the screen of the client on the 100Mb connection?

Has anyone confirmed that there is the ability to even host listen servers?
I'm assuming all servers will be run on their backend... which means that once they decide the game has gone EOL they can switch the servers off and no more MP...
If not they really really need to learn from what happened with left 4 dead - and that was only mitigated by the fact that there were real 3rd party dedicated servers aswell as listen servers.
