I voted no but could convinced to change mind after having the chance to try it out, it does look like it could be a fairly nifty addition to Windows 10. Thanks @Logethica very interesting.

Awwww man, cool toy. i must have it
When gaming within this type of immersive environment gets just a little cheaper,
I will most likely die in my chair lol

The technology should be beneficial to 3D modelling, Animation works etc other than that I don't think you would get excited to see
Windows Defender in VR

It's really interesting, but too expensive for today. And, what is the most important part, you have no choice, because the games that can work in this holographic reality will be really rare for years after release. I don't wanna play in what Microsoft wants me to =)
And, of course, gamers will die in chairs. They do it even without 3D environment, just playing CS or DOTA, so imagine what it will be... Terrifying!

In terms of productivity and useful scenario like in hospital, military or institutio; Holographic can be useful at all rather in gaming experience.
