Well the title say it all:

How can you plug 2 monitors on 1 PC?

I know some artists like loki does this.
Why do this some may ask, here is a quote from loki: I have two 21" monitors. On the right side I keep all the menus, reference-images, etc. and on the left monitor I only have the painting, nothing else, so I'm not distracted by any bright windows. This is especially important when working on dark images. Finally, when you have one dedicated image-monitor, you don't need to zoom out that far to see the whole image.

And well since I have a spare monitor i'd like some help for this. (There is just 1 monitor plug behind the PC, so do you use a spitter?? im wondering.)

I asked this question a while ago. Here's the thread. There are some links in there that have multi-mon info.
