Prefer a video card setup that can drive 3 monitors over the Matrox things.
The Matrox thing will make 2 or more monitors appear as one. Under Linux you can hack xinerama to deal with this. The Mac support makes it annoying to use. I haven't tried with windows but I imagine its ok there.
But get a modern card that can drive 3 monitors. It should be eaiser.
I've been running 3 24" screens for years now. But am thinking of going to one 27.

could you recommend a video card for 3 monitors?
I used to use 2 NVidia cards. 9500GTs to be exact. Nothing special about these cards other than they had dual DVI output.
Nowadays I just use one card with 2 monitors (Linux), and use synergy to bring in a 3rd monitor from a MacBook.
If I were doing triple displays today, I'd look at something from ATI with Eyefinity.
