1. In tearms of multiple monitors, if your going to run X, getting a video card 
like one of the newer NVIDIA FXcards will allow you to use 2 monitors.
Most of those series have can run with two monitors(1 normal output,
and one DVI(I believe) output.

2. Another solution would be to install openssh on the server box, and set up a couple
terminals  for it, they don't even need to run `nix.  

so which ever works better for you, I'm guessing the first would be far more useful, depending 
on the situation.  

3. I haven't looked into making a dual processor system in a while but the last time I looked
alot of boards did double up on ram, and AGP slots.
