** HTC VIVE: TRY IT FOR YOURSELF AT OCUK & PRE-ORDER WITH OcUK!! **

I think all of the manfacturers say that VR should not be used by children (IIRC Oculus said age 13+) so I would be surprised if Overclockers would allow him to demo it.

Actually the Vive hasn't yet got an age limit. It's the only VR headset to so far be for all ages. Some people think this may change when the Vive is released. It's odd because I've heard the VR could help eyesight like lazy eye.
 
They have six demo locations OcUK being one of which where you can try for yourself and then if happy pre-order in store of which the 14 day rule does not apply as you already tried prior to purchase and did not order online. :)
I am pretty annoyed that HTC have not organised even one Vive demo location outside of England. That's a rather poor show, tbh.
 
There isn't one in the South West area or anything south of Reading or London either so wouldn't feel too left out if I was you. I wont be driving a 10ish hour return trip just to try one.
A bunch of us actually did just do the approximate 7-hour trip to OCUK, just for the 20-minute demo!! :D

TBH, it was probably much more bearable with mates, as it was one of them Road Trip kind of things, really... especially as it chucked it down on the way back.

But just from that short demo, pre-orders were made. We'd tried a DK2 and this was only the Pre-Order Demo Vive, but it was good enough that we were universally sold!!

If I had that kind of money, I'd have placed my own order, too...
