Oh I totally agree. I’m not arguing that because the Mac SE was a rich boys toy that all rich boy toys will succeed. I’m arguing that it’s an invalid dismissal that something is a rich boy’s toy, because sometimes those go on to popular success. The person I was responding to seemed to think that rich boy toy was some terminal destination of irrelevance. It clearly isn’t always. Good quote though, thank you for sharing that.

I think there is pretty interesting potential for 3D design to be much superior in a stereoscopic interface than the flattened version of it you get on a 2D screen. Consuming anything 3 dimensional has the same potential benefits. Basically, you’re dismissing the third dimension with a wave of your hand. I’d keep that question open until we see more what application there are. People did say that the Mac was NOT an easier way of doing paper things and that they already had good ways of doing all office tasks. Look at how far the Mac has come from its genesis though. And it’s only true feature, at the bottom of it all, was using a mouse visually instead of keyboard commands. An interface style that was more intuitive and made things discoverable. Virtual computing can easily be as big a jump as that.

It doesn't solve any problems that you have thought of yet. There may be some cool stuff that none of us thought of that we'll find has become a part of our daily life in the future.

I'm not buying one but I'm glad they are working on stuff like this. It's a fully portable, wearable 3D computer system. We didn't use to have cool stuff like that and now we do.

I mean, isn’t it the equivalent of a Mac Mini strapped to your head, computing-horsepower-wise?

Are you saying the Mac has become a popular success JUST NOW? lol wut
