Microsoft may have dropped a big hint about how much its crazy holographic computer will cost
But an unnamed Microsoft exec told The New York Times said that it would cost significantly more than a game console.
This means the HoloLens could cost several hundred dollars for consumers. Gaming consoles aren't cheap - the Xbox One usually sells for $400 through Microsoft's online store, but it's on sale for $350. The Playstation 4 also costs $400.
That's still cheaper than the Explorer Edition of Google Glass, which Google sold to developers and other select "explorers" for $1,500 before ending its Explorer program.
The Oculus Rift Development Kit 2 also sells for $350, which is much cheaper than how much the HoloLens will probably cost.
