far too expressive

Is why it's a flop. Without the ability for people to buy it, it's a paperweight, or at best, a cool science project from the smartest kid in class.

Definitely true. I will say that the sheer amount of high tech crammed into the Vision Pro package necessitates that price tag. Not to mention the R&D and testing to do so. Like I completely understand why it costs as much as it does.

Still not going to buy it though.
