I had 4 monitors a piece on two separate machines once upon a time. The config was like this:

Machine #1

AGP G400 Maxx Dualhead
PCI G450 Dualhead
2x21in. CRTs 2x19in. CRTs

Machine#2

AGP ATI AIW 128
3x PCI Matrox Millenium
2x19in. CRTs 2x17in. CRTs

I wish I'd taken some pics, but the messy office they were in wouldn't have exactly been "eye-candy" anyway.

I saw that picture, not sure if its real or not, its about 10 monitors lined up/stacked, on about 5 different rigs lying about, playing 1 flight sim. I'm not sure if thats possible, but what do I know?

I'm running one Monitor :D

Nah, they were all screenies running off 5 different comps :)

Windows can only handle 9 monitors.

I had 4 a couple of years ago, and not a single one of the graphics cards was from Matrox. :)

That Flight Sim setup is pretty cool.

I have a unique setup w/multiple monitors on one desk, but they're each hooked up to their own computer & keyboard. I have 7 computers in my SOHO network.

Unortunately I don't have a digital camera - I'll post some pics when I get the film developed.
