No thanks. I have never, and will never give any money to apple.

Seconded. Few other companies can come close to the global, societal damage Apple has committed.

Can't wait to see people wearing those around the office. Thinking about it. if you remove the desk, monitors, keyboard, mouse and just sit down bunch of programmers next to each other with those goggles it can actually be cheaper for the company to run an office even at 3.5k per headset.

Can’t wait for these demos to be the new Covid epicenters.

Mixed reality has a ton of potential seeing the Quest 3, but they are usually not seamless enough.

If Apple can pull this one off then 3500 is a lot of money but some people spend this much on a TV or a bike. If it's a truly amazing AR experience it might be well worth that price.

I wholeheartedly believe that Apple is a marketing company more than a tech company.
