remember when dbc had options for something similar?
they are trying to pimp them for scientists using os x.

apparently the video cards for higher end machines have 1 dvi port and one dual head dvi port

I presume you still get a massive headache when used. Or do Macs generate a 'special' sort of headace ?

Yeah. "Special."

Much as I love my mac *gives it a hug* it does give me the occasional headache.

nvidia already have a 3d glasses technoloy that uses the flicker effect of crt's and lcd lenses in the glasses, it renders the viewpoint of each eye in alternate frames and blacks out the other eye in the glasses. unfortunately it requires a crt and an nvidia card, the glasses are around £30 on ebay iirc.

yes I have a pair, they aren't too bad, but it cuts down the refreshrate by half, and anything below 60 makes me feel ill.

i suppose you'd ideally need you screen refreshing at over 120Hz and games similarly would need to match that with 120 fps (60fps each eye), i find crt's bad enough withough blocking every second frame lol.
