Default quad sli = how many video ports? matrox dual head2go x 2?

Does anyone know with a quad sli setup, how many video ports this
enables.. ie: with regular sli.. you only end up with 2 DVI out of 4..
so do you end up with 4 on a quad sli setup and how do you know which
ports are active?

Also.. has anyone tried the dual or tri matrox2go setups.. if i'm
running 1900x1080 (1080p) on a 24".. would i be able to hook one of
these to a single DVI port and then have two LCDS at the same
resolution each (or one LCD and an HDTV via the HDMI port)?

Any thoughts?

Thanks

probably what i'd like.
i have output 1 of my pc connected to my monitor, output 2 to my hdtv.
i'd rather like to connect up a spare old monitor i have as a third to get
extra desktop space.
