At first I thought, good, I only use glasses for reading, not distance. So I shouldn’t need the Zeiss add-ons. Then I thought, wait, you’re not REALLY looking in the distance—just virtually. You’re really looking at something (a tiny screen) about an inch away from your eye. How can anybody focus on that? Guess I’ll have to wait for a try-on/fitting session at my local Apple Store next year to find out whether I’ll need the lenses or not. Wondering how much they’ll add to the cost. 

Don’t want to sound arrogant, but I made what turned out to be a very good decision a few years into my  second college teaching job back in 1985. I bought $10,000 worth of Apple stock as a retirement investment. I’ve held onto it all these years, plus bought a couple more similar sized blocks along the way. Can’t tell you how many times people begged me to “sell it before it drops.” Apple has amply rewarded my faith in it by making it possible to keep myself up to date with their latest products just on dividends alone. Vision Pro will be one more treat.

Hey somebody, your kid is posting on your account. 

How about an iMac “for the rest of us?” Wife and I have gone through several generations of big screen iMacs. We are retired and our eyes are not what they used to be. The larger screen is very helpful. We are told to get a stand-alone big screen and a Mini. We are on a fixed income and that option comes at a price. Apple is very conscientious about tools for the disabled, but that’s overkill for us, we don’t need screen magnification, just a bit more screen real estate to allow for changing resolutions. Besides, we’ve always loved the all-in-one footprint of an iMac. Come on, Tim. Have mercy on us tweeners—old, but not disabled. 

You mean that hack magnet? Half the messages I get are bogus. Avoid it.
