Jeez I'd love to know what Apple's R&D debt on Vision Pro is, based on current sales to date. I really really hope they continue to push for a headset that's within reach of average people but the hole must be so deep at this point I wouldn't be surprised if they cut their losses.

As Carmack pointed out the problem with AR/VR right now - it's not the hardware, it's the software. Until the "visicalc" must have killer app shows up to move the hardware, there is little incentive for general users to make the investment.

The third option is peoples' expectation for AR/VR itself: it could be a highly niche and expensive industry and unlikely to grow to the general population.
