This is with three computers. The main computer hosts a multiplayer game
and the other two join it. Then
you just use the two you have joined to spectate the hosting computer with
cameras downloaded (from the website above) at the perfect left & right
angles.

Works great but obviously is a bit more hassle loading a game across three
instances. The "spectating" machines need not be too powerful.

Hope this helps

There has also been updates to the GPL rasterizer that allow
wide-screen resolutions.  This has let one user setup a 3-display rig
on one box using a Matrox Parhelia (dog of a card for anything else,
sadly)- here's the link.  The video is very impressive:
