A colleague is offering to sell me their old Sony PSVR headset for an
exceptionally low price. Despite my frequent rants against VR, I have
to admit I'm somewhat tempted. I know I won't use the thing very much,
but... well, the price is pretty good, and who am I to turn up the
opportunity of adding another gadget to the collection?

Apparently the thing actually works with PCs, albeit requiring
third-party hacks. It's not entirely clear, though, if 'works' means
anything more than 'connects and technically you could do VR stuff' or
actually means, 'hey, plug this fucker in and you can play VR games on
Steam'. More research will be needed. I have to say, I am sort of
interested in seeing Elite Forever in VR mode. ;-)

It would require me to - at least temporarily - unplug one of my
monitors so I could use the HDMI port for the PSVR headset. Can I
really survive with only THREE monitors?!? ;-)

It also depends on the condition of the device. I've been told its in
working condition... but if it's all yellowed with chewed-up foam and
sweat-covered, I'm not sure I'd want it. ;-)

Has anyone tried the PSVR on PC? Should I even bother?
