You absolutely must have a high-speed internet connection. From there, it helps to have a machine with a decent video card (probably with at least 16MB video RAM), a snappy processor (like a P4), and a good amount of main RAM.
Your mileage may vary.
BTW, one of my favorite parts of the service is the weekly radio show, "Gutter Talk", hosted by Del Ballard. Although there are currently no new shows, you can go back and replay old shows you liked, or broadcasts you missed.
At this time of year, with the ladies tour now dead and buried, the only way to watch bowling is to play your old tapes of the shows, or pick shows from the StrikePass archives. I love watching some of the older shows, with 3-man shootouts and such. There's some great stuff there!
