Re: second monitor
First - you probably already checked this, but make sure you have to get a second video card. Mine has both DVI and analog (RGB) ports on it so it is dual-monitor ready.
I am going through the same process of picking a new monitor. If money was not an issue, I'd get the Samsung 213T (21.3" LCD, 1600x1280, $1000) but I am eyeing a Sceptre (19" LCD, 1280x1024, $525) or two instead.
As far as your video card goes, do you need to use either monitor for serious gaming or other video applications? If not, I'd just buy a cheap $50-$70 PCI video card at your local Best Buy.
