Even Apple can't solve the two big problems with AR/VR goggle demos

1. if you don't have the Goggles on none of it makes sense. At best it looks kind of fake/dumb.
2. VR/AR goggles can never look cool

I'm sure glad there's AR augmented workspaces. Meanwhile I'm still hacking away at multiple TN3270 terminals, wrangling some AS400 apps.

I think it's pretty cool as a concept...but they haven't really shown any app that makes me want to buy it. All of this seems easier on a Mac/iPad.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
I am going to say that I think this is cool but also it surely will be too expensive for me.

John Carmack is still right: 250 grams and 250 dollar is where we need to be. A plug for the battery is just a crutch.

yeah basically. I'm like "nice concept" but I couldn't figure out a way to use it. But that is also how VR has been for me.

I legit don't see a point to this. It doesn't actually do anything that the phone/tablet/macs do.

Who has money for THIS but not for a monitor and a place to put it?
