in part, it may serve as a substitute to highdpi monitor while you’re in Hawaii

  It's not highdpi. It's only 4K per eye and that's over the entire field of vision. Highdpi would be 4K on a 24" screen a foot or two away. The vision pro spreads those pixels out over a much bigger angle. It's got enough pixels to equal a few 1080p monitors though.

    I have one and have been using it as an external display, i find the resolution fantastic

      That's great, but it's absolutely not high DPI. iFixit estimates the pixels per degree (ppd) of the AVP at ~34 [0]. A MacBook Pro at 20" is over 90 ppd [1]. A 27" 1920x1080 display at 22" would match the AVP at 34ppd.

      That may well be but it's not 4K unless you stretch it out over the entire field of view which would be crazy huge :) at a normal size it would be about 1080p effectively, maybe a little higher.
