One more thing. This does work well when your only objective is to
enable stereo viewing. If you have sufficient framebuffer resources to
allocate stereo visuals at the required pixel depth at 1600x1200 then
this shouldn't pose much of a problem. You must ensure that your windows
are positioned and size appropriately.
