[QUOTE="invitro, post: 246991, member: 446"] The main way it's not accurate is that it wildly overstates the importance of VR. Videotape was used by almost literally everyone, and would still be today if other techs hadn't superceded it. VR will probably be used by only a tiny fraction* of people even at its peak. Lots of people who have used VR just plain don't like it, don't think it's fun, don't see any use for it. No one said videotape wasn't fun, or the idea of recording and playing video was useless; the idea of someone saying "I don't have any use for recording and playing video" is almost laughable. *I know that some techevangelists claim that at some point in the near future, everyone will be using VR every day. Well, maybe, but maybe we'll be getting around in flying cars or jetpacks in the near future, too. [/QUOTE]
