Hi kolombo1, Yes it is. GWT is very capable of producing desktop apps, either with data held centrally somewhere or alternatively by using Gears, or (best of both worlds) a combination of both so you a) can use it off-line and b) have an on-line backup or c) do all of that and have a central repository.
Another option is to run a light-weight web server on the local machine or a LAN server. But GWT is not really there to provide an alternative to traditional desktop apps - there are enough options there already - it's aimed at (groan) 'cloud' computing i.e. something stuck on a server that you can access from anywhere (with a connection) and which gives you the latest version of the software every time you go there (no downgrading allowed - it's the future, whether you want it of not).
