We're broke as fuck, we can not afford that shit. Money is better spent elsewhere than a VR "workstation".
Also their cheaper option is great for 1/3 or less of the price
And for 500 it's getting even better than all other options next month.
I’d use VR for work if I could afford it. But not from the take all you personal dada and sell it company.
I would use it for work, except our tech stack is still stuck in the 1990s...
You could likely capture card your monitors and pipe them into a secondary PC, to then pipe into your headset. Assuming your limitation is a work PC unable to run VR for one reason or another.
Great, now I can get even 3x the headache while fixing legacy code, using jquery UI and wearing a VR headset at work! /s
For real. Even if I did have enough money to go buy something that's that much I'd rather get literally anything else
For that price I can buy a used ThinkPad AND set it up for work in a literal strip club. Thats the price tag.
I am intrigued by your message and would like to subscribe to your newsletter.
I’d also like to subscribe to strip club management tips, please.
