Well, if I didn't have to make a face book log in to use one. If not for that I would consider one to play in steam. Even if I had to have it tethered.

That wouldn't be better for the company. They probably don't make money on selling the hardware.

Same sentiment except additionally I will never buy anything from Facebook because they are radicalizing people.

Not going to buy an Apple Vision either if it won't behave as a generic screen for any OS.

I am utterly sick of the account requirement and proprietary connector bullshit from every company.
