This seems to be the question of the moment.  At least three clients
have asked me this, despite the fact that I personally never use "VR"
as a phrase except in the company of close friends.  I have my own
opinions, but what do you think?  While the fate of VR seems uncer-
tain, 3D computing's future seems assured.  This seems weird, given
the overt similarity of the two practices.  What's the difference?
