Being fair - the Rift hasn't been superceded and there's not really anything imminent that would make it obsolete. So someone buying it on release has had a pretty good run.

Obviously - this is partly because of VR uptake being slower than some expected but I use a Rift daily and it still does it's job admirably.

I'm talking about what the first version that consumers could buy, that a colleague brought to work in 2013 I think. It had a low resolution.

The first consumer Rift is the same one currently being sold.

You might mean the DK1 - which wasn't generally available to non-developers but I don't think there were any stringent checks in place over who was a developer.
