Guess? Jeans is using what appears the Dactyl Nitemare VR system as a
promotional gimmick.  It will no doubt be appearing in your
neighborhood soon, as it only makes a day stop at each of the Foleys
Department Stores in Houston, TX.

The ad copy goes on to say that "The Virtual Reality machine will
change the way you see the world.  Forever."  And you can try it for
free, with the purchase of any Guess? item ($48-$68).

Obviously, we have all been pursuing the wrong financial backers for
our VR projects.  I'v just signed a deal with Coco Chanel and Calvin
Klein.
