Microsoft has been working on AR for years. Did they stop hardware and OS work after talking to Apple about #VisionPro, but continue all the Office, etc., software work? Microsoft reportedly made more (after costs) on each original Mac selling software (MultiPlan, Word, etc.) than Apple did the hardware. They have gesture experience from the Pen Windows days.

Ahhh... HoloLens, Surface Dip, Zune... They could have been contenders.
BTW, this is still rocking along. Thanks for your part
(What I mean by "gesture experience" is thinking how to add use of gestures as part of the UI for productivity apps. Some of us did that for apps for GO's PenApps and MS PenWindows. Probably most of the original people at MS who did that are no longer there, though.)
