I believe so too, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. They don't even have a consumer version yet.
I do think that there is a possibility here to push computer tools to their next evolutionary step, much like what the GUI did in its day, allowing entirely new classes of applications to emerge.
Oculus could enable new tools that we can barely imagine today, much like Final Cut or Photoshop would have been hard to imagine in 1970. Being able to visualize simulations and other visual explanations in a way that is so close to our real world is potentially a game changer for machine assisted work.
But they sold the company to a megacorp with a terribly uninteresting product, and a CEO who believes that "anyone over 30 is useless". So maybe this vision won't happen just yet, and instead we'll get social-gamified-"ready player one" VR bullcrap.
