Dual Headed Cheap Card?

I have had the ATI EAH 3450 card recommended to me in my server build kit list, but I think that I would benefit from a dual headed card that allows me to display different Virtual Machines on different monitors.

Are there any other similar cost effective cards that I could consider that would allow me to have the dual headed output?

Cheers

By dual headed, do you just mean a card that will let you output to 2 monitors at the same time ?. Because the card you linked allows you to do that. The white port on the right is a DVI (digital) connector & the blue port on the left is a VGA (Analogue) connector. Each can supply a different monitor. Most cards come with a convertor, so if you have 2 DVI monitors or 2 VGA monitors then you can still supply them both.
 
Thanks - that's exactly what I wanted. Outputting to two different monitors at the same time.

I will use Vista's extended desktop configuration so that the OS can be on the left and my Virtual Machine on the right.

Cheers!
Pete
