Resolves YES if, any time between now and the close date, I own any device which I can wear on my head and which displays a relatively high resolution image/screen to me. Any device with pixels large enough for me to individually distinguish does not count, but anythin higher does.
Some personal information about my technology habits: I have owned apple laptops, an LG Ultrafine 5k monitor and iPhones for the past ~10 years and have been very happy with them. I bought an apple watch recently and have been ambivalent about whether or not it was a good purchase. Feel free to ask more questions in the comments.
