Predict for me whether I will go dual DVI or not.

I can't decide whether I should spend the extra money and get a dual DVI 6800GT or not! The problem is predicting whether I will get another LCD in the near future. Make my decision for me.

Facts:
College Student ($600 left in bank, ~$400 yet to be spent on 6800GT, down from $2000 after PC build)
Just bought $750 2001FP (19" CRT is TOO heavy for college)

So I only have one display now, and that one was a hard purchase... wallet is crying. Now I'm looking at the 6800GT, but dual DVI or not? Dual DVI might be the safe route because I can go backwards to analog if ever needed to, but by the time I get a second LCD I may have already upgraded the 6800GT to something else. Ahhhh!!!!!
 
While it's better you make your own decisions, go ahead and get the dual DVI card if it's not much more in price. Use the DVI to VGA adapter if you never wind up getting a second LCD. No biggie. Not much else we can tell you. It's your choice.
