   @thomasfuchs It has the same CPU as a Mac and a higher resolution screen so from that perspective it kind of makes sense.

   It just needs to make up for the same limitations ipadOS has

     @thomasfuchs I suspect folks install Beat Saber and then forget anything else exists. It's about the only thing I can tolerate on the Quest 2, given the janky resolution.

     (not tried hooking up to a PC for the extra grunt, yet)

     @thomasfuchs Agreed, and I thought that messaging was super clear. They were kind of casting about for the scenarios where that really makes sense, and I thought the stuff where it was like, “you’re doing work in your computer, but you’re also making breakfast for your kids” was the weakest and most unsettling.

     Sitting on a cramped airplane and being able to block out your surroundings and use a giant screen that doesn’t take up any physical space? Yes please.

     @kalleboo @thomasfuchs but what is it *for*

     It's priced way too high to be a replacement for a media computer, and I cannot imagine anyone in their right mind using it for creating documents.
