FYI QUAD Buffer stereo is only supported on the NVIDIA's Pro range the Quadro FX cards, they do not support this on consumer cards

This is pretty poor considering that you've got the NVidia 3D glasses. Perhaps the NVidia drivers only provide a hack for 3d support in 3rd party apps, as they do for games. I would be worth contacting NVidia about it as frankly selling hardware but not supporting quad buffer stereo in the drivers is just plain incompetent/fraudulent. Robert.
