(According to some suit at FORBES.)
This is a decidedly optimistic article from Forbes magazine about how awesome Virtual Reality is. It clearly ignores some of the practical limitations and challenges facing the tech. Don't you just love it when non-technical people tell you how awesome your passion is and that it is worth a lot of money? Well, if that is your bag, you will love this tech fluff piece. While the article is light on technical specifics, it is kind of uplifting and makes me feel better about the VR rig I bought. So give it a read, if for no other reason than to affirm that your current passion is worth while. Feel free to heckle in the comments below.
