Rubbish, excuse my English :-)
I have four Zalman's running in stereo although I have to confess
they're all running on various Macs (MacBook Pro, Mac Mini, MacPro)
under 10.5 or 10.6.
I have no clue if the Zalman runs under linux.
Regarding the stereo effect it is superior than conventional CRT with
shutter glasses.

My 5 cents,

Jürgen
