    To be fair, the technology is really fascinating. Virtual objects throwing shadows on the real environment or generating a virtual face in realtime is stunning. But on a practical note, does this keep your face from getting sweaty? Can you wear glasses comfortably? Can you change light seals when they get dirty?

    Nevertheless this is in effect just a glorified monitor, but will certainly cost several times more. So I really can’t imagine compelling use cases. Especially since you can only use it with other apple devices.

      The expensive Apple Monitor actually does not cost much more.

      I’m just interested in seeing what sorts of games someone will develop for this. I imagine it’d be great.

        At first, I wanted to reply “Gaming? On a Mac? Get out of here!”. But I just saw that over 38k games are available for MacOS in Steam - well, TIL!
