My fault for not being clear... I meant that the anaglyph is the best 
choice on a budget. the glasses are cheaper that cheap lorgnette(how do 
you spell that?) viewers, and you only have to print 3 colors. (Red 
Blue and Black) Another thing to consider is that you can easily have a 
full 8.5x11" anaglyph page, but a pair would have to be MUCH smaller to 
fit on the page. In my opinion, a contributing factor in the judgement 
making process.

Sorry it took me so long to respond to this... =)
