$3500 smackaroos initial offering. What does it do? How horrifying!?

Chato looks at it from the perspective of a former network executive and hobbyist of various kinds. No games yet but those are surely coming.

ICEBREAKER THESIS CHRONOLOGY! -- Victor Suvorov's Stalin Grand Strategy theory, in lots and lots of chronological order...
Dawn of Armageddon -- narrative AAR for Dawn of War: Soulstorm: Ultimate Apocalypse
Survive Harder! -- Two season narrative AAR, an Amazon Blood Bowl career.
PanzOrc Corpz Generals -- Fantasy Wars narrative AAR, half a combined campaign.
Khazâd du-bekâr! -- narrative dwarf AAR for LotR BfME2 RotWK campaign.
RobO Q Campaign Generator -- archived classic CMBB/CMAK tool!

When the games come out, then there will be something to discuss.

Well, they are aiming to have you do your entire computing in there, not just games.

Considering they sit around 13% of the computer market, that's still a pretty big ask for a small share.  Even less with gaming not included. 

The entire VR/AR concept hasn't managed a strong hold despite offerings at a fraction of the price, and this is from a market that notoriously overspends on whatever the latest graphics card is offered, regardless of price.

This project is absolutely DOA at that price point with what it currently proposes to do.

Apple is probably saying that everybody else are just holding them wrong :)
