Here are things I would like to have in an AR/VR environment.
1. More monitors. I can only fit 2, maybe 3 monitors on my desk. If I could easily reposition 5 or 6 virtual monitors that would be great.
2. Whiteboarding. I like to draw things when I have some discussions. Doing that in VR is a pretty decent workflow.
If I could start a Slack 'huddle' with someone and instantly be able to start drawing or have us both interacting with the virtual monitors, I think that'd be enough for me to justify paying.
The tech still has to go further. For multiple monitors you'd really want to offload rendering and I think that current VR goggles are still just too heavy, they need to get cut down to maybe 20% of their current weight, at which point I think they would be comfortable enough to wear for a large portion of a workday.
The benefit of AR would be that I can seamlessly switch between "real life" workflows and "virtual" workflows. For example, I want to get up and grab some water, but I can take one of my virtual desktops along with me so that I can keep watching a conference talk or whatever.
