Daily Poll 797: Did you buy the Apple Vision Pro?
The Apple Vision Pro is officially available to the public. While this isn’t the first mixed reality headset to exist it certainly is about the most ridiculous, expensive and well known. The Google Glass was mocked relentlessly at the time and it was far left of a walking billboard for local mugging candidates. I’m nowhere close to being in the Apple ecosystem so this one I’m skipping on. What about you? Don’t forget to vote on the poll and to comment below!

I have been genuinely thinking about it. Problem is, I don’t do well with VR/AR. I get motion sickness.
Many years ago, Disney used to have an arcade called Disney Quest. I can’t remember if it was on a boardwalk, or Downtown Disney or what all, but it was a 5 level arcade in Orlando that was fun and awesome. They had an Aladdin VR experience that was well done, especially for the time. I had to take the headset off a few times to get my bearings and stop myself from puking all over creation. I had also played with a VERY primitive version of VR in the 90s. Think Doom on DOS, but with only lines, no color or polygons. Unfortunately, even with Vive, Oculus, Playstation, Etc… I have not had one good experience with the platform.
So it’s a limitation of me, not the platform. I love the way Apple products work together, but I don’t think this one will be for me since it’s not true passthrough/AR. It’s simulated. Cool concept, I’m sure great execution, but I’ll put that money towards building a computer instead.

Disney Quest was in Downtown Disney. I remember that place being a lot of fun. They had Fix-It Felix arcade cabinets and whole bunch of retro ones too

I’m glad I’m not the only one that remembers the place! Too bad they tore it down for something else. 🙁
