One thing that Xinerama also works with is Xdmx [Distributed Multihead X].
It allows one to use remote X screens as an extension of one's main screen,
even Windows machines running Xming. It was originally [AFAICT] designed
for creating video walls, but is great if you've got some old laptops
sitting around doing nothing.

If you're going to use it, I suggest you reconfigure XFS on your main
machine to accept remote connections from the slave screens to avoid
tedious problems with fonts not being the same on all hosts.
