That’s what you always claim when faced with comments you dislike. “Y’all are uninformed.” Sorry, but that isn’t the case.

And there will always be people who will be immediately become "informed" after spending a lot of time googling a subject after someone makes a post that's at odds with their understanding.

I don't mind that at all, learning something new. You shouldn't either if someone actually *helps* in further understanding.

You seemed to be a lot more focused on playing "gotcha". As in this case.

When I think back to earlier Apple HyperCard example of using hypertext before the WWW and its search engines was available you just knew that way of researching information was about to radically change. AR was suppose to elicit increased reality with demos linked to various web pages when conducting fact finding, education, and shopping as examples. I haven’t noticed that Apple marketing has focused on any of that, instead VisionOS examples are not as convincing as they could be. But then that thought of everything seen via the WWW is possibly premature on what to expect from a new platform device. ;)

You completely missed my point.

Although the lines are blurred, I view AR as mostly (but certainly not limited to) being a tool to help some professionals (surgeons, architects, industrial plant inspectors, insurance adjusters, mechanics, etc.) solve problems in the course of their work. And also regular people performing tasks they're involved with. As opposed to VR, which, as just one example, lets users experience new places as if they were actually there in real life, such as the Louvre, walking through the Colosseum, participating in a Formula 1 race, running the San Francisco Marathon along with 20,000 other runners, exploring the Pyramids in Egypt, exploring the Lascaux cave paintings in France going back around 20,000 years, watching a live football/baseball/soccer game as if you were actually in the stadium, etc, etc.

I see Apple (and AVP developers) greatly opening up the above possibilities.

I just had an epiphany.....

since everyone will use THESE "vision pro sumtin' goggles" starting this march 2024
they won't hack or try to hack our computers anymore
and :apple: will forget they make these Macs like Minis and MacBook by august
So there's no more Sonoma, Mountain Lion or Panther by august, meaning no more updates.

we can use what ever OS we want and be happy!
