I was hoping someone had a digital video card with multiple ports
similar to a serial port replicator that would allow you run up to 3, 4
or 6 LCD displays from a single video card?

This seems like the ideal setup when using Linux.  Run different
terminals and programs on each display.  Have the displays in front of
you like an arc were you could look around to your left and right to
monitor your network without fooling with multiple pc's or virtual
desktops on a single monitor.  Like something out of a scifi movie huh!

Make any sense?  Is there a single video card which will run 3 or more
displays in Linux?
