- Yet another Christmas where the Meta Quest app goes to number one. Amazing! So many new people introduced to VR. I remember in 1999 - 2002 or so we’d talk about the same thing. “So many people will be getting a PC for Christmas and logging on to the Internet for the first
- Replying to @businessbaristaVR fitness! Side note, I was one of the first to sell creatine online, starting in 1997 and then sold about a $250,000,000 of it over the next 17 years with my company Bodybuilding. com.
