Derek, I believe Mac has proven to have more than enough tech knowledge to understand what it's all about.
Obviously, for all posts here on this MB it's all about "interpretation, perception and formulation" and choosing between the honest or disingenuous path.

How about Sphere 3D? = 1

1+1+1=3? Oh no, wait a moment, they have merged and become 1 and they have already started to sell their integrated technologies and solutions and people like it:

Mr. Alan Loh, Senior Sales Director at Datum Technology Pte Ltd, a leading enterprise solution value-added distributor (VAD) in Singapore, said, “We were introduced to the V3 VDI hyper-converged appliance at vForum in Singapore and are very excited to have a product like V3 in our portfolio. V3 appliances offer a unique value proposition and remain highly differentiated from traditional converged infrastructure or solutions trying to use clustered storage file systems. Additionally, the added capability of scaling storage separately from desktop computing should create greater flexibility for our customers.”

Think about it, once customers get addicted to the advantages of S3D hyperconverged solutions, they will be offered Glassware as well and revenue will steadily build!
Unique Benefits of the V3 Appliance Series:
Ease & Flexibility of Deployment: The purpose-built, all-in-one V3 Appliance incorporates storage, compute and management in a single rack-mounted chassis. V3 Appliances can be deployed and managed in a public, private, or hybrid model and scale up and out for industry-leading flexibility when deployed locally or in a datacenter.
Breakthrough Operational Simplicity: The V3 Desktop Cloud Orchestrator (DCO) management software streamlines virtual desktop pool administration with dynamic provisioning for maximum resource utilization, failover for high availability, and the flexibility to migrate pools between public and private clouds.
Predictable & Consistent Performance: By removing legacy VDI bottlenecks, the V3 virtual desktop appliance maintains consistent levels of performance for each V3 user, typically two to eight times faster than physical PCs.
Secure Desktop Computing: The V3 Appliance architecture delivers highly-secure desktop computing because no data is stored on, or transferred to, the user’s desktop. Administrators have the ability to control access in real time.
Scalability: VDI typically requires additional storage for user data. Sphere 3D completes the V3 virtual desktop solution with optional SnapServer and SnapScale storage solutions that deliver cost-effective, reliable and infinitely-scalable performance and capacity.
