I can get Wolf ET spanning across 3 monitors at 1024x768 (each) and still do 40fps+, 210 degree field of view is something to see! (they call it cheating and boot me from the server LOL)"

Wow, holy crap that is awesome!  I'm not too experienced with multi-monitor gaming, the most I've ever tried was in Windows with Homeworld 2 was getting that to run on 2 monitors, and that was pretty cool when I had that setup (except, it was 2 diff size monitors, which didn't line up quite right).

But man, that is awesome... geez 3 monitors...   That would be so kick-butt like playing some Half-Life 2 or Farcry on there, or heck, even UT2K4.  (I'm still doing my gaming in windows as of right now though).
