#14I felt like I was committing heresy when I told my friends that the vision pro was unlikely to succeed or at least succeed culturally. I'm sure it will pick up some niches just like the meta headset. The reality is, this is a covid product and covid is over.

I'm an Apple-hater but I'd like VR to become a thing. I work remotely and could imagine being sent a keyboard, mouse, and company VR headset that transports me to the office.
