My first (arch btw) linux install it took me a whole week to install correctly in the first place, yet to show the DE. This was with prior experience working with linux. I personally liked that it was complicated since it was a good learning experience (much better than the oversimplified Ubuntu install anyways)

I disagree. AR will become big since as we progress VR we'll do as we do with computers. Make smaller versions (like all these mini computers posts on HN) to carry with us, but with VR that is not quite possible since we would to stick cameras on the front of the lenses.

You never see movies with people walking around with big VR headsets, they walk around with AR glasses and that would most probably be in the distant future.
