I’m a Mac guy so I’m a bit out of touch with the state of PCs. I know PCs usually are a few years behind technology wise, but I’m kind of surprised they still don’t have bluetooth as standard. The technology is decades old.

I am an IT technician, and it takes a lot of confidence and ignorance to be this wrong.

This explains so much about your earlier statement, you seem to think that there is a a standard PC, there isn't.

There are hundreds of manufacturers making PCs and PC parts.

I have never seen a laptop in decades that lack Bluetooth, however there are still desktop motherboards you can buy without wifi or bluetooth, but this is not my reason for making this post...

I am pissed because I don't get why you wouldn't just put the required Bluetooth into the PSVR2 PC adapter unit.

This is what happens when you're in a walled garden. You lose sight of what exists outside of it.

At least their username is accurate!

That usually depends on if the PC has an inbuilt Wi-Fi chip. The Bluetooth controller is usually coupled in the same chip. So PCs that lack Wi-Fi usually doesn't have Bluetooth.
