I've thought this too. I sent the company information to our IT guy saying "hey, check this out, isn't this awesome!" No reply and usually he does reply! So I too am guessing that they might be a little concerned.

Actually thinking even further on this.

Once spiffy can deliver all it promises, who would need an operating system? (Apple and Microsoft come quickly to the forefront) I think there will be some pushback somewhere along the line with these 2 powerhouses.

Either buy it and bury it or Buy it for some huge bucks and develop it further. No matter what is the outcome, it is all good for us SH because I don't think this is a disruptive tech but will completely dominate all of the future world of computing.

Absolutely nothing better than owning a piece of World Dominion. Wish I had been able to buy more.

Just my opinion.

I have a sales / marketing background and would say that it could likely depend on the organization structure and who you're selling to. The sales pitch has to go to the top.

A CIO of a large company will probably understand the ramifications that you specified. Since CIOs report to the CFO, everything is taken to account. Many CIOs are compensated for finding efficiencies so they have skin in the game.

Hi zerotothemoon, it's a fact that Desktop Virtualization becomes a lot easier with V3 appliances and software but aren't you going a little too far assuming from here that the companies using V3 + Sphere3D will no longer need or want their own IT team?
Even with V3 + Sphere3D some companies will prefer a hybrid solution having some V3 computing capacity in-house and some in the Cloud, especially during transition to the Cloud.
Within a company environment would you see yourself as a non-IT person taking responsibility of the tasks referred to below?
a) Desktop Cloud Orchestration
b) Desktop Cloud Orchestrator Explanatory Video
c) Installation and Management of Glassware2.0 and desktop applications on servers
d) integration of the above a)b)and c) within an existing IT infrastructure

Most IT guys will welcome the simplicity and user-friendly features and understand they aren't becoming obsolete but their task becomes easier and more rewarding.

I suspect that the CEO's and CFO's of the companies that do climb on board will spread the word to their counterparts in non-competing companies.
