Is it possible to build a system utilizing 3 30" monitors on a Windows platform (either the Dells or Apple Cinema displays)? What kind of graphics card(s) would be needed?

I'm wondering this myself on a Dell Precision 380. I currently have 2 big-gun monitors and want to add a third.
There seems to be no info available from either Dell or from the web.
Surely, we can't be the only ones wondering about this?

I'm a newbie to this stuff but if the new NVidia cards have 2 dual DVI ports then two cards should be capable of driving 3 30" monitors. At least thats my hypothesis.
Are there any other great 30" monitors out there aside from Dell and Apple. Not sure if the 30" cinema display will work with a Windows system but whether its the OSX system or the monitor, PC displays never look as good as their Mac counterparts.

You might need one card for each monitor (3 cards total) to run the monitors at native resolution.
