    I desperately want a virtual desktop environment for plain ass computing. Give me infinite windows for my spreadsheet and IDE and that’s all I need!

        Without a Meta account tho? I’ve got hard blockers on price or shenanigans (or both) for every headset I know of.

          Not sure what having an account has to do with anything. I get the objection on the grounds of Meta being a shit company and it’s perfectly reasonable, but having to make an account specifically for the device (and possibly nothing else - you don’t have to link it to facebook or anything) doesn’t magically give them any more power over you.

        I’ve heard the quest 3 is awesome and does almost everything the Vision does. Not sure I can justify the price to myself yet.

          i am using a quest 2 for productivity and ebooks but the resolution is so low that my desktops need to be 1280x720 or I can’t read them. it will be nice to upgrade when i get the chance.

            I’ve heard the resolution is good enough to watch movies on too. Not sure if that is true, but that would be a selling point for me.

      Yeah, I would genuinely use one for the virtual screen capabilities to do my normal Salesforce-and-Slack job, if not for the price.
