It's dual VGA. If you buy a nice LCD monitor it will look better with a DVI connection.

Looks good. Never been a huge fan of MSI mobo's, but you're probably ok. Hard drives are cheap enough that it doesn't make any sense to buy an 80GB...shop around and get a 200GB Barracuda (Seagate > WD) for a few extra bucks so you'll never have to worry about it. Recorded video for example takes up ~1GB/hour, so unless there's *no* chance you'll use this for anything but poker, a little extra hd never hurts.

If you're going to go ahead and get a SATA HD, I'd Recommend getting a 10K RPM WD Raptor (36 or 74GB).
