    I really don’t think head sets will ever be absolutely insane products.

    Lots of people just don’t want to strap a display to their face.

      I can see a good use case if they make a decently functional lightweight headset that can replace multiple monitors, particularly for traveling

        Maybe for traveling. However, how many people really are going to buy an expensive electronic device for a few hours on a plane?

        That’s a pretty “upper class” luxury at best. Then, there’s nobody developing apps for it outside of a few streaming providers (maybe).

        Also, I work with multiple monitors all day and play games on those monitors at night, but I still appreciate that I can look away from the content and just “get up and get a drink” or look out the window and watch the birds outside of my office at the feeder.

        Also think about all this effort people put in to try and reduce their screen time… A VR headset is the antithesis of that objective.
