Dual Monitor Setup

I want to support dual monitors. Is this the right part? Do I need to get a "dual link" adaptor as it seems like if I get the single pictured above one will run on VGA? Can someone explain the technical aspects? Where to buy as seems not offered by Lenovo?

This appears to be the Lenovo adapter you need - cheap too.

A single link DVI is good up to 1920x1200 so unless you have a higher resolution monitor this adapter would work, you'll still need the DVI cable.
AFAIK the VGA output should still drive a second monitor but I've never tried it.
