Multiple Monitors

I have often wondered whether I could set up three monitors for FS2004.      The centre one would display the 'straight ahead' panel view (button 8), the left hand one would display the "10 o'clock" panel view ( button 7), and the right hand one would display the "2 o'clock" panel view (button 9).      Is such a set-up feasible and, if so, what sort of additional hardware/software would be required?

Here's another solution:

This system uses an SLI Quad core Intel Motherboard with two 9600GT nVidia cards.

I have the Matrox Triple head and two vidio cards and I am running 6 monitors currently. The Matrox handles the view out the windshild and the other three handle my glass cockpit. With a Quad core I am able to keep above 15FPS in very dense scenery.
