I'm using an older DepthQ-WXGA system and Quadro FX3700(?) graphics card in a classroom setting and it seems to work fine. Stunning, really. It uses a VGA cable and the 3-pin mini-DIN on the graphics card. I mount the IR emitter on top of the projector and everyone in the room can sync with it from IR reflected from the projection screen. For really long VGA cable runs, the syncing can blank out for a few seconds periodically, but for a typical short cable run (<12 feet or so) the image is rock solid. You can mirror the projector display on a computer monitor from a VGA output port on the rear of the projector. Uses inexpensive LCD shutter glasses. The newer DepthQ models can utilize a larger number of video cards and obtain sync signals through the USB port with the appropriate NVidia drivers. I haven't used the newer models, but it sounds simpler to install.
