nobody sits at that desk, they put on the hmd and walk around on the little area over they by the tether. The monitor is just there to show what they're seeting.

just went looking to see if i could still get one of the old virtual i/o i-glasses headsets.

turns out i can, there is exactly one available on ebay, in unknown condition, listed as "for parts", missing the input cable, and costing $200 cdn with currency conversion and shipping, but without import duties.

i hate that this poo poo became "collectable".

Some RSI you get a 'budget' of computer time and you can't spend it on games because work uses up your clicks and clacks.

I’ve got a pair in my closet. I built a vr headset in 2003 for my senior project by mounting accelerometers on it (2 axis because the sensors were 300 frickin dollars). wrote a 3d engine that used it natively and a mouse driver that let you use it in other games.

800x600 was fine because that’s what doom 3 used lol
