Just to add to the other comments from Thomas & Bram, we've not yet
tested a 1-system-3-graphics card configuration; it probably won't
work (yet) with Performer 2.3.x or the upcoming new 2.4 version.
We'll keep the list posted on our progress.

There have been a few folks who have done a 3-systems-with-1-card-each
("cluster") configuration with eyepoint synchronization, this
technique works well with 2.3.x and 2.4, and is also interesting from
the scalability standpoint.

I'd be interested to hear what others have tried as well.
