HOWTO: turn one linux PC into multple stations for kiosk

It is my understanding that back in the old days of UNIX (80's), that
it was not uncommon to find one physical machine with multiple dumb
terminals. I need to setup a 5 station kiosk system that will run a
web browser. It dawned on me that in theory I should be able to use
Linux on one physical box and simply put multiple video cards in it
and hook up multiple keyboards/mice to it. The only question is:
how? Are there any howto or faq's out there on the subject?
