I showed the Oculus to employee's at my mom's office.

Don't think that since you have money to spend that you should go on a spending spree or anything.

lol, I haven't. I wouldn't have the money to buy things like this if I spent it all immediately.

The first thing I noticed was that the box was massive. Much bigger than I expected. Think briefcase size. I'm adjusting it right now, and it's really light. Maybe 2/3 of a pound.

Just be careful, if you keep thinking that you can buy things like that than you'll lose track of money and then BAM, money? what money?

Where'd this come from?

Besides, I have plenty of money to spend.

Since he said that I wanted to tell him to be careful with it.

This is annoying. The gears to adjust lens location go inwards, and require a screwdriver to use.

My personal opinion is that anyone who really wants the Oculus Rift right now should purchase the developer version, but they should do so with the understanding that the product is not consumer grade and is not intended for use by the average person. Zealott appears aware of this, so in this case it's just a question of if the product is good enough for him to consider it worth his money. It doesn't matter if other people would have used their money differently.

oh no how terrible

something requires a screwdriver, an uncommon household item!

It's not terrible, just annoying. You need to get the lenses in the proper position for it to look nice, and you can't adjust them via screwdriver while looking through them. You have to take it off, adjust, put it on, adjust, take it off, adjust, put in on, until it finally looks perfect.

I hope it goes well!

well i mean it is a dev kit

the consumer version will probably be easier to do

A lot less annoying then your adjustment getting forgeted up by a bump.

lol. I just had a ton of trouble getting it working. I followed all the instructions and troubleshooted for 20 minutes to see why the Rift wasn't displaying the game. I just found out that it's because I never pressed the power button.

Brilliant.

I've had one for a couple months, it's pretty sick
