I can definitely confirm this. I wanted to try out surround using two extra monitors I had sitting around anyway, and it works great. The monitors are all different brands, screen sizes, native resolutions, native refresh rates, and even different types (two LCD, and one CRT.)
They have to all be hooked up with the same connector, so I used three VGA-DVI adapters to hook them up. I then created a custom resolution of 1024x768 with a 60.001 refresh rate for each one (1024x768 is the highest common resolution, the 60.001 refresh rate is needed for my HP, as I understand it is because of Windows 7 rounding error.)
And even though I am playing games across three different screen sizes, it still seems fluid while playing and is a great experience. I am planning on picking up two more 24" monitors at my earliest convenience. Definitely a surround fan here.
