Nix, if you just look at:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/product_GeForce_3D_VisionKit_us.html
Its stereo-shutter glasses, and obviously you need the 120Hz display
so that half the time it is a 60Hz display.

Actually, the wireless aspect makes it sound attractive - maybe you
could have a meeting with several people using the glasses to look at
a presentation of a 3D dataset.


Regarding GPU computing, if you use CUDA you have to either have two
graphics cards, or run without X.
If you run a CUDA app plus X at the same time there is an inbuilt 10
second timeout.
