Q: Oculus Rift and Macs?

I want to pre-order an Oculus rift and I was looking at the page on the site on oculus-ready PCs. Unfortunately, Macs are not recommended, even running Boot Camp.

 

Plus, I apparently need a monitor to run the Oculus Rift (even though the monitor is basically the headset) for set up, troubleshooting and other issues. Although a gaming box does not take up a lot of room, I already have a Mac in both bedrooms, and the thought of another screen does not appeal to me.

 

Therefore, I would like to feed the display image from the PC over to my iMac. On the Oculus forums, they said I could buy an adapter for one of my thunderbolt ports.

 

Recommendations?

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.2)
