Unfortunately the current display model also has several times more resolution than any available VR headset.

  That will change though - or at least resolution in both will increase to the point where it doesn't matter.

    Exactly, I believe I read a Carmack article saying that you need 4K pixels per eye to get to a resolution where pixels are imperceptible (though presumably those with better than 20/20 would need higher). That’s probably a few years away, but I’d be surprised if we don’t get there in 5-10. Meanwhile, we need to build all the ui and OS code to drive such displays. That said I’m not sure I’d sign up for using the current generation as my primary display device.

  I wonder how much the total resolution matters. With my 27” display I only ever look at part of the screen. (Perceived) pixel density is a big thing though.

  Lets not forget people used to code on displays that could only fit 80x30 character text. I'd happily give up a good % of the resolution on my monitor in exchange for an unlimited numbers of variable-sized screens organized however/wherever I want them.
