I see that there is both an HDMI and VGA port. Does it support dual monitors (one monitor connected via VGA and the other by HDMI)? Thanks

Definitely no -- it's one or the other. And the video processor in this box is too weak to render HdMI at full resolution. I returned the box and bought an Intel NUC kit -- much better.

Hello Matthew, I will say every connector is on this device because built in you have VGA, HDMI and a Display Port. You may say, what about DVI and while that is not built in, you can buy an additional cable to convert either the HDMI or the Display Port to DVI and for that matter you can get both and run 2 DVI monitors! These are great computers.

Not sure what the port next to the VGA is, the manual calls it "High performance Display Adaptor". I don't own any HDMI devices, so can't say for sure, but it does have the same shape & size. But can't plug it in to anything to test it.

Yes, this graphics card supports dual-monitors. Two options for the HDMI: Mini-HDMI (port on card) to HDMI patch cable or a DVI-D to HDMI patch cable. I personally would do a DVI-D to HDMI patch cable as they are more readily available but either would work.Nothing else would be needed, i.e. no adapters (not even sure what an adapter would be for)I'm currently running dual 23-inch monitors with DVI-D connections at 1920x1080. Movies, video games, etc look great and are a big improvement from the on-board graphics card that comes on a off-the-shelf desktop PC.

It has a VGA port and DVI Port. So you can have 2 displays, one connected to each port. It cannot do 2 VGA or 2 DVI though.

It has a single VGA and two full size Display Ports. You can get a display port to HDMI adapter (search amazon for 'B005H3I38Q').

I have two monitors next to each other, one is the VGA and one is display port to VGA. If there is a difference it doesn't seem very apparent to me. Looks the same.

No, there are 2 DVI and one HDMI. That said, they do come with a DVI -> HDMI converter. So while there aren't two HDMI ports, you do have the ability to drive two HDMI monitors.

Apparantly has both HDMI and VGA; see http://computercritique.com/acer-aspire-p2020m-nx-mgaaa-004-e1-731-4699-laptop-review/

The monitor itself only has 1 VGA and 2 HDMI ports, no DVI ports. It comes with an HDMI to DVI cable so you can plug a DVI device into one of the HDMI ports.

There should be 2 VGA ports IIRC and an HDMI. Try it with a different monitor too!!

No, Only two. VGA And choose any other hdmi port or dvi port. excellent video quality output though.

Yes. One monitor plugs into the VGA port and the other has to plug into the HDMI port. If you don't have an HDMI enabled monitor (and are using a VGA monitor), then you need to get a VGA to HDMI adapter. The computer is kinda laggy on audio and video though, I don't really recommend it. Get used to your music buzzing a lot.

Yes. There are 2 HDMI IN ports on the back of the monitor base. Instructions say "Connect HDMI devices to watch on the Display*. (Blue Ray players, cable/satellite boxes, game consoles, etc). The * Language is this, "The HDMI IN Port is not used for HDMI output. Does not support dual displays. Hope this helps.

I'm running two monitors on it right now. Just be aware, there is one VGA port and one DVI port available with the onboard setup, so if you are wanting to run dual DVI monitors, you'll need an additional video card. If you're fine with one on VGA and one on DVI, you're good to go out of the box.
