You just need to buy a computer with multiple video out. A lot of off the shelf computers now offer at least 2 screens. Though sometimes, the off the shelf computer may have a DVI out, and then an HDMI out...problem is now if you're like me, and want two matching monitors, you need to find a screen that supports HDMI. Not all cheaper screens support HDMI.

How much are you willing to spend on a new computer? Some people say they only wanna spend 300-600, your best bet is to look for an off-the-shelf computer that fits those needs. I think some of those cheaper computers even still have multiple video out.
Look...even a piece of garbage HP supports multiple displays

If you wanted to build a powerful computer....to be honest, not really another hobby. You build it, and it's done. You don't have to go all out. It'll cost you maybe $800-1500. And you'll have a good setup, it's not a hardcore gamer setup, but who needs that crap when all you're doing is posting on ClubLexus and looking at
? Intel i7, 16GB RAM, SSD hard drive + standard hard drives (cheaper storage, or you can go RAID if you have a lot of movies and music. RAID protects from data loss during a hard drive failure)...and you can get a $50 video card that supports multiple displays.
BTW, once you use multiple displays, you'll never want to go back, no matter how big the screen is....

If you can get two HDMI-in monitors then that works too...they also have conversion plugs and things that make it go from HDMI to DVI and vice versa.

ah, thanks bro for the advice. that piece of garbage desktop you posted is about three times better than what i have right now. lol My laptop that i use is core i5 and does exactly what i need for work so i fell off with computer gadgets. i have an account with dell so i'll prob just custom build one through them, i know they hike up the price VS me building one at home but i'll prob just finance it and pay it off in half a year. yeah i got to get the multiple screens, looks sick and prob will help with work.,
I hate using a laptop on my lap.... I hate using a laptop period
