Correct.

GLEW is the library used by Equalizer for OpenGL extension handling.

On Windows, you can drive them sub-optimally using Equalizer, because  
the rendering commands for each display will be send to all cards.  
Linux does not have this limitation.

Yes. On windows you can also configure one pipe with one window and  
six channels.

One window = one OpenGL context and drawable
One pipe (GPU) has n windows
one window has n channels (rendering areas)

Please phrase your question, if my explanation above doesn't help.
