No problem. You can run just one monitor. You can also get a Y connector cable with one VGA and one DVI if you want an option to a higher quality video image later.

Since I have no idea what you are talking about, I suggest you upgrade to the DMS-60.
If I’m not mistaken, the DMS-60 comes with a Rich Corinthian Leather Interior while the DMS-59 only comes with Leatherette.

You will have to places to put a monitor but windows will only detect one if only one is plugged in to the y thingy.

Question is, can I run just one monitor, or do I have to run 2? It's really dependent on your graphics driver. If you have Windows XP, it's likely that you can use a single monitor. Windows will realize that you have only a single monitor plugged in, and will put your desktop on it.
In the unlikely event that it doesn't do that, you can simply right click on the desktop, select "properties", and then the "settings" tab.
Select the monitor you want, and make sure that the "use this device as my primary monitor" box is checked. Select the other monitor, and turn OFF the checkbox labeled "Extend my windows desktop onto this monitor".

I’m saving up as we write.
Been kind of thin on funds the last couple of years.

older Dell; Dimention 2350, Pentium 4, 1.5 ghz. And you admitted to that on an open forum. Ritual suicide is the only honorable path open to you.
Be honest, you're running Windoze 95, aren't you?

Don't worry, their sacrifice has not gone unnoticed. You can take my DMS-59 from my cold dead hands.

ROTHFLOL!
That’s the EXACT picture I had in my mind!
What ever happened to Ricardo?
Car was a piece of junk, but it had some nice lines, for its day.
