The first VR system that many of us used was the W Industries / Virtuality system in the early 1990's. Those were $60k in 1991 which is $140k today.

If the price of leading edge VR price drops two orders of magnitude every 35 years or so, it's probably only going to be another 10-15 years for $200 headsets.

So it's not here yet, but will be soon.

The computer powering the Virtuality was an Amiga, which I've always found mindblowing.
