How to setup/control 5 projectors from one laptop

Hello guys,

I need to setup/control 5 projectors from one laptop.

I guess there are hardware/software requirements to do this.

A search on the web, i found the following :

Hardware  - i'll need something like : http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/products/gxm/th2go/

Software - I'll need something like http://www.troikatronix.com/isadora.html


but the problem, is that i need to find hardware in lebanon - any idea where i can get such stuff from? and what should i be looking/asking for exactly.

I am wondering If anyone has the hardware already - if i can rent it - it is just a one time thing only.

Thanks for the help :)

PC and Parts has it. They have the Dual, Triple, and Quad monitor support; though the cost is very high. You also need serious graphic power to feed 5 displays

5 cheap graphic cards... 5 desktops? Would that do?
Can you use Linux?

PS: Sorry, I missed the "laptop" part :) (duh!)
Why not use a desktop computer?
