I've actually got 2 4 port VGA cards in my junkpile.  1 is S3/Virge based
and the other is ET4000 based.  Each 'port' has 2 meg of memory.

I'm a bit short on FreeBSD machines with graphics heads so I've not tested
them yet.

Relating to this subject the old HP9000/300s could do this trick (2 seats
for a single machine).

Some of the kit SGI sold for the old Onyx boxes could do this as well.
