Great post! Thanks. GW works as advertised. The evidence is overwhelming. The underlying business that is S3D is developing very well... obviously the stock doesn't reflect that... yet... q2 obviously not good... macro environment is terrible... nonetheless GW works and the platform is being readied for scale... better days ahead for long horizon investors... jmo... glta...

Dustin Hardin... New Caney IT professional... his thoughts on GW... as expressed to Common via email... In turbulent times it is best to stay grounded by focusing on that which is real... Dustin has significant plans for GW embedded on a Dell server... emphasis mine...

"I apologize for taking to long to reply to you, we have had a crazy few weeks at the office. Deploying 7,000 Chromebooks to teenagers and getting another 4,000 ready for little children will age you quickly.
I will be working in the next few months to find applications Chromebooks cannot run that our teachers and students want. Our early college program has to have the Office suite for some college classes so Glassware will be a great fit for that. We have a robotics class that has a Windows applications and obviously programming classes need a Java IDE to compile applications. All of those work on Glassware, I just don't have the staff to dedicate to it right now.
On the other statement, about running it in a "Test environment": in April we had 20+ students using Glassware for TestNav and had plans to use it for quite a few hundred the following week. Due to fears from Pearson having issues with their servers going down we decided against it. However, in July we had nearly 100 retesters on Glassware simultaneously and it worked.
End of the day, the product works. But with over 15,000 end user devices in our district and a team of only 20 people, just keeping the helpdesk tickets down is our primary focus right now. Again, once the school year starts up, I have more plans for Glassware."
