The answer is yes!  You have to use the chimera daily build (this will be 
standard in 1.4) and switch the camera to "row interleaved" stereo.  Row 
interleaved stereo works on the Miracube and the Zalman stereo monitors on 
all platforms (Windows, Linux, Mac).  See our tech note on the Miracube at
