Hello everyone.
The Mixed Reality Forums here are no longer being used or maintained.
There are a few other places we would like to direct you to for support, both from Microsoft and from the community.
The first way we want to connect with you is our mixed reality developer program, which you can sign up for at https://aka.ms/IWantMR.
For technical questions, please use Stack Overflow, and tag your questions using either hololens or windows-mixed-reality.
If you want to join in discussions, please do so in the HoloDevelopers Slack, which you can join by going to https://aka.ms/holodevelopers, or in our Microsoft Tech Communities forums at https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/mixed-reality/ct-p/MicrosoftMixedReality.
And always feel free to hit us up on Twitter @MxdRealityDev.

Is there any way to get assisted funding for buying a Hololens development edition?
As a teens, it is hard to get 3k to spend on a development kit, a couple friends and I are planing on expaning the platforms we develop on by sharing a hololens dev kit. Our current hope is starting a kickstarter to help with funding on expanding our development fields into hololens. We plan on exploring holographic development and plan on making tons of great aplications and tools to expand the capability of hololens.

Your best bet is to develop using the emulator and then do live testing once the consumer version is released. I don't know what the consumer pricing would be, but I'd imagine definitely less than the development version.
Hey Maxim,
I don't think that this forum is being monitored by the sorts of people looking to help fund projects.
While you are waiting to get the capital together, there are some practical things that you can do so that you are ready when you finally get the device. I strongly encourage you to spend time in Unity (or another 3d game engine) creating a traditional 3d application. The experience (in particular the math) that you acquire should map directly to applications for the HoloLens.
hth,
Patrick

Like to learn directly from Unity 5Games Developers in steps
Just do two hours a day at first, keep leaving for an hour at least as this is intense, and walking away from problems with holographic development is essential, or you will be frustrated as you are in fact learning a multidisciplinary system of mathematics, physics, and spatial thinking.
Good luck
Sweet tooth! That's a long list of tutorials. I'm gonna dig in!
