Oculus founder Palmer Luckey attacked Apple and there products when he spoke to ShackNews at an Xbox event. When asked whether the company's Oculus Rift VR headset will come to MacOS, Luckey stated, "That is up to Apple. If they ever release a good computer, we will do it." He referred to Apple's general reticence in utilizing high-end GPUs in its products, which instead rely on the Intel chipsets' integrated GPU capabilities. "You can buy a $6,000 Mac Pro with the top of the line AMD FirePro D700, and it still doesn't match our recommended specs," Luckey continued. "So if they prioritize higher-end GPUs like they used to for a while back in the day, we'd love to support Mac. But right now, there's just not a single machine out there that supports it." I get that Mac’s aren’t exactly gaming computers, but to just flat out attack Apple products because they can’t run your VR headset is just wrong in my eye. What do you think ?
