Here's one low cost dual display card by mail-order: 

  http://www.googlegear.com/ggweb/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=320601 

It may not be the highest performance card if you're into using 
the computer for gaming but 3D performance isn't used in any of 
the amateur contesting/logging programs. 

For other cards check video cards at www.pricewatch.com (look for the 
earlier generation (nVidia gForce 2 MX, Matrox G400 and G450, etc. 
based cards ... their prices will be about 75% or less than the 
current "high end" cards). 

73,
