1. SLI support and Crossfire support don't exist in Unix. How can you 
possibly setup 16 monitors? Even with splitters, it's not possible 
(unless you use PCI cards).
2. Wine has plenty of Howto's all over the net.

    Wondering though -- is this being done for a spanned TV display/LCD 
display in a restaurant or something?
