# mostly just notes for myself

currently I'm thinking probably an HTC Vive Pro 2. full kit is $1400 USD :|
next was likely like, a Valve Index.

started with
=> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_virtual_reality_headsets this list
and sorted by most-recent.

I went with these based on these criteria:


	
fuck facebook (so no oculus or meta or whatever)
	
tethered (I don't want to to have to rely on their VR-specific computer)
	
has to play job simulator because the kid has been bugging me to play that for the last like, 4 years. XD
	
not discontinued


first on the list was a like, Varjo Aero? but after clicking through various websites, eventually it showed me a price of like, $2000... that's a bit much.
kind of looks like Aeros are kind of hard to actually find anyway.

most of these companies have moved away from tethered anyway :/

ok, so for a Vive Pro 2... just the headset on new egg is like, $800
