I’d be careful with W3Schools; yes, they do have simple introductions and tutorials, but there’s also some errors and misinformation (e.g. http://www.w3schools.com/flash/flash_inhtml.asp or http://www.w3schools.com/xhtml/xhtml_intro.asp).
After you get your desktop background images synced up, why not sync your mouse and keyboard as well? An open source program called Synergy will let you use the same keyboard and mouse across multiple machines (even with different OSes). Its like a software KVM over the network. Your mouse can scroll across all 3 screens and keyboard focus goes with it.
I have 3 machines with screens as well at work. One is Ubuntu (left), one is Windows (middle), and one is an iMac (right). I use the same keyboard and mouse for all three.

Linux: Synergy
Use Windows link or download from your distro’s repositories.
I guess I should say that I look at your desk and see a lot of space taken up by those 3 keyboards.

Thanks, Dirtboy! We’ve covered and used Synergy. We just have the keyboards there, we don’t use them at the same time. :) Good catch!
