    Multi Monitors

    I am looking into buying a new machine. I don't want to go through the video card installation on my own. What do you recommend? I would like to get a fairly basic home PC (like a Dell Dimension) or low end workstation with an Appian or Matrox card preinstalled . Where can I get that?
