IMHO I think the best advice would be to buy a fast cheap combo 2D/3D
card for now ( Diamond 2000 3D about 70ukp/ Matrox Mystique 3d 99ukp )
for now and wait for some sort of standard thats going to be supported
by the software houses. Its just not worth spending a fortune now only
to find its outdated and unsuported in 3 months time.
