You can mix and match, but you dont say if you are on a Windows machine
or a Mac, or what video card you have. With a modern video card (that
has two video connections on the back) this is very easy under Windows.
Just plug two screens in and Windows will detect the extra screen. You
can then choose what you want to do with the second screen, and which
one you want as your primary.
On my own setup, I have a 21" TFT as my primary screen, connected via a
digital connection to the video card. I have a second 15" TFT that I
have rotated 90 degrees to the right connected as well (via a regular
monitor connection). This gives me a second display that is in portrate
mode rather than landscape (taller rather than wider) which is great for
the PhotoShop tools and reading web pages. Windows handles rotating the
image on the physically roted screen by -90 degrees so that my desktop
stretches perfectly across both screens.
