I am a 17 year old high school student intensely interested in VR.  I
am hoping to go to MIT next year, and currently involved in homebrew
VR.  

	I have investigated building HMD's and trackers, but one thing has
turned me away: compatibility.  I have examined the HMD systems that are
commercially available, and have found the VFX1 by Forte to be an ideal
setup.  The VR mouse software extends compatiblity, and it has many
other great features.  

	One problem: I don't have $695 (Forte direct price) to spend right
now.  Does anyone know of any place that has an exceptional price or
anyone who wishes to sell one used?  please Email me personally.
