Maybe try looking for some Keychron boards on ebay? They should be around that price used and a lot of them are wireless too.

What's new and advanced about this? Hasn't it all already existed in some form? It's just been Apple-ified, no? It's just a VR headset, an actual AR headset is something like HoloLens.

Beyond the tech, who is even the target audience for this? I only see it as a gimmick, one for just Apple geeks to buy. One of the reasons 3DTV's failed is because nobody wanted to wear the glasses, so why would anyone want to strap this to their face just to do something they already do or could do on their TV/computer/phone?

You can already pretty much do everything this can with an existing VR headset in one way or another, for a lot cheaper.
It's a bizzare product.

Yeah, the reason why they make so much is because the skins have actual value, they also get 15% on any sale made through their community market. I fucking hate lootboxes, but I also hate skins costing as much as a game. MTX (micro or macro) are always going to be shit, until regulations catch up to all the predatory bullshit we are going to be stuck with one system or another and I'd rather take CS's.
I mean I made a profit, if I sold up right now.

There's always another generation between each one that experiences like half of each in their childhood. That being said, generation has always been an odd way to categorise, in reality it's much more fluid as to what people encounter.

Well, the whole point of a 'man hose' is for reproductive purposes, but maybe you haven't figured that out yet.

Even when they get a new user on Linux, they still then scrutinise their choice of distribution, if not that then their IDE. There's no winning and it's off-putting for people considering the jump.

Nintendo actually try something new with their consoles too, so that's at least good.
Everyone should be moving to PC though, you actually have freedom there. I think Steam machines would do pretty good if they came out now.

It was tongue in cheek. But it does make sense a European chain would bring that over to the US.

Yes. Yes. Yes. The whale comment pisses me off, it might have been true initially, but these days all the average consumers spend money on this trash.
