I don’t know in what world would that be affordable.

Maybe if companies buy it for their employees which makes this an enterprise product like the Mac Pro or software like Logic Pro.

It would be insane of Apple to invest billions in development to end up with a product that is not targeted for regular consumers.

How is Logic Pro an enterprise product? It's one of the most affordable pro-grade DAWs.

Also, I've seen a lot of non-enterprise Mac Pro's for, and that's just /one/ example, freelance video editors.

It would be affordable if you are using it for your job and actually getting paid.

Also - nobody is saying there won’t be a consumer device.

Only that they don’t have to start there to be successful.

If Apple’s headset is like a Hololens that would be a turn off honestly. I expect more from them.
