You can have 3 heaters on a Ramps. The heated bed can be used for heating a hotend. However, Ramps only supports 2 stepper drivers for extrudes natively. You would have to wire up a 3rd stepper driver to use a 3rd hotend.

Not to get too off-topic, but can you do a master/slave set-up with a RAMPS? I know you can for a Melzi, but I've never seen it done for a RAMPS.

Yes you can. I use I2c in a master/slave set up. I am using a mini pro as a slave to run a set of servo's for a project I am working on.Quote
