I'm a VR evangelist and even I baulk at the rumoured price of Apple's 'so good' VR headset

I love virtual reality, and I've talked it up to many a friend, family member, and colleague. But even I must admit that paying $3,000 for a VR headset is a bit too rich for my blood—a lot too rich for my blood, actually. Yet that's how much Apple is said to be charging for its first VR/AR headset.

I have no doubts in my mind that Apple's headset will be a sleek, impressive device. It's said to have been in the works for over half a decade now, and Apple tends to do hardware pretty darn well—it doesn't even pain me a bit as a PC gamer to admit that. I do have some questions about the eventual ecosystem of software for Apple's VR headset, as the company tends to keep its ecosystems locked down, but we'll find out more about all of that very soon.
