If you want to add another monitor to a laptop you will need a USB to VGA adapter as described in this video:

USB to VGA adapters are around $10 to $20 USD:

You can add this at any time in the future.

Based on your last message I would suggest that you get the fastest CPU and largest monitor you can afford along with 8 gigs of RAM, and 500GB HD (any speed). You can always convert the 500GB HD to a 500SSD at a later date if you wish for faster load times.

The above fastest CPU suggestion is my main thing when I get a new computer. I have found that the faster a CPU the longer the computer's life span.
