I was using triple display back in 1990 on Mac II 68040 machines.
I can't believe it took so long to get to 2 monitors, and 3 well, only bother if you're a graphic artist and need loads of screen real estate, plus a TV output so you can drag media across to do a quick preview to get colours, etc looking right.
One comment was surround "flight sims". I think a high res VR headset with direction tracking would be much nicer for the application. That way you could look behind you better.
Anyway, it's been around for years, just another example of the fact that no new technology is really new anymore.
