Yes, *this* is a good group to start with. There are three questions you
should ask: 
1) What will you be doing with it? (i.e., teaching, playing games, high
end simulation, etc.)

2) What are you looking for? (i.e., field of view, resolution, video rate,
immersive, see-through, etc.),

3) How much do you want to spend?
