I'm trying to hook two monitors to my computer to acheive dual display
so that I can view more than one application at once. I've only got
one vga port on my computer now (built in on the motherboard)--any
ideas how I can get dual display fairly inexpensively?

Just add another AGP graphic card (or even PCI but honestly speaking I
wouldn't recommended it)?

buy a pci video card - I bought a 128 mb pci card and installed it in
windows xp -- it shows up in display
with options to clone- dual display or something else
cost was $49 with rebate nivida
they make a better 256mb one for $10 bucks more
