  Can’t blame you.

  It’s a shame we didn’t get to see the feverish launch of an amazingly priced Linux game machine we should have got without the RAM and storage crisis, but circumstances are what they are.

  Personally I’m still interested in the frame because I really really really want a decent VR headset that works with Linux and is nothing to do with Meta.

    The Frame is the only thing that has a potential use for me, but it heavily depends on price and I don’t think I’d be able to justify it.

      I’m basically resigned to pay whatever it costs.

      I backed the original Oculus Rift, loves it, then felt quite betrayed when Ocuclus sold. And since I moved fully off Windows it became a paperweight anyway.

      I’ve been waiting years and years for the right device in terms of vendor, ecosystem and support, so I’m just going to have to save my pennies.
