  even more nuts is that it will support pc games via FEX, an emulation layer that runs x86 windows games on ARM in Linux

        Im guessing Vive prices. Id be suprised at less than 1k, but no word on it yet.

  Any ideas on Linux support?

    They talked about streaming VR games from the SteamOS based steam machine to it.

    So with that I’d assume we’re finally getting some much needed progress to SteamVR on linux.

      Yeah, this is what I’m most looking forward to in the immediate sense tbh. It’ll be nice to play HLA without crashing every time it loads a new level as it currrently does for me in SteamVR (Monado doesn’t have this issue, but I can’t use my left-handed controls without Steam input :-|)

    pretty sure it’s SteamOS, an Arch Linux derivative, on a fairly popular Snapdragon platform. probably not too difficult to hack on it.
