I mean I just bought my Rift not but 3-4 nights ago and have been enjoying it. Woke up today after having a day off from work and discovered it not to be working, now am i upset? A bit..but you know im not going to fret over it. But I will say this it is kinda Ironic the day its everybodies birthday or they just got their rift, something like this happens. I have very a very high patience limit and im still going.
It must be really frustrating for those who didn't even get to play it first and just have a box teasing them. In the long run I doubt today will matter, glad you're enjoying yours... or were!

People need to stop thinking of the Rift as just a piece of hardware.
It's closer to a console than a PC peripheral.
It requires the software to run, similar to how your PC requires an OS to work.
If something happens to that OS, the unit won't work.
They're going to fix it, people just need to learn patience.

I don’t want to hear relax..take a shower etc..those of u who r telling us to calm down please stfu. I just paid $450 for a unit that literally does not even turn on. U SERIOUS?!!! And I hate to admit it but I do feel better that I am not the only idiot looking at their monitor with intense agony. Saying “but it’s hardware? How could software prevent me from using it”. Well within my 14 day return date and looking at the box it came in with the receipt taped on, because I was warned. Tic toc tic toc. Wow what a screw up.
Oh man, my whole computer is tied to software... What happens if the OS craps out?
It's just hardware, right? I shouldn't have to have software to make it work.
Right. Last time my computer didn’t work because of software it was my fault for watching your moms porn channel. Thanks for playing.

This is definitely not necessary, go elsewhere.
