There is just so much news about Chromebooks being used in schools. I've seen news releases being churned out everyday about school districts planning to or currently committing to or piloting these devices:

How many of these schools would need to run traditional/legacy applications vs apps to support the school curriculum? We're also going into the summer too, so there is HUGE opportunity for Sphere 3D in the next few months to win business... before the school year starts up again in September.

While Citrix or VMWare offer a competing product, going with one of these two giants would require the cost of licensing, hardware, and hiring an additional FTE (at annual salary $80,000+) to manage the infrastructure and support required to maintain this. This is something that I think most schools won't have in the budget for. Sphere 3D and Glassware is positioned for ease of administration and maintenance that an existing IT resource can just jump into.
