No you don't need 9 computers, in fact I think that would make it really hard to do. Is it something like this :Wall Solutions you are looking for? If so, then a specialist graphics card in a reasonably powerful machine will do the job nicely.

We are going to have a few monitors going spare after the Summer hols, and one little project being discussed is to create a video wall.
If we had 9 screens (a 3 x 3 'grid') we'd have to have 9 computers, 1 for each screen, or is their gadgetry out there that could do this for us?
I know nothing about this sort of thing, so some clue would be good.
Thanks.

How about adding a couple of ATI FireMV 2400 cards
A couple of ATI eyefinity cards in a single machine would give you up to 12 screen outputs and plenty of graphics power, you could easily play most modern games across the whole screen array.

For visualisations of data this would be very impressive.
Here are some more methods of implementation:
