I wouldn't be too happy at pledging money only to see them sell the company and the product to slightly creepy Facebook!  _________________Plain English advice on everything money, purchase and service related:

Can you imagine what all the hipster geeks are going to do about this? Basically the hippest company there is bought by, effectively, the devil incarnate. It's going to be hilarious.

The man's made £200m from something he started in his bedroom. At this point, he can pretty much do whatever the hell he likes.

I'm sceptical of Oculus Rift's mass appeal, says Xbox co-founder http://www.computerandvideogames.com/45 ... o-founder/If it's so outstanding that you forget you're wearing the goggles, fine, but I doubt it. And you have to get people to try them in the first place. _________________Plain English advice on everything money, purchase and service related:
