Yesterday, Palmer Luckey personally delivered the first consumer Oculus Rift to the first guy that pre-ordered it, taking what he seems to be trying to establish as his trademark Hawaiian shirt all the way to Anchorage, Alaska. So begins the great wave of modern VR, which, depending on who you talk to, is either going to fundamentally change both the world and our relationship with technology or sort of fizzle out like the last time we were told that was going to happen. Computers are a touch more powerful today than they were in the mid-80s, of course. I’m bullish on the whole thing, but it’s an experience that can be hard to describe. Luckily, thousands more will soon get the opportunity to experience it for themselves.
