Best Type Of Second Monitor

With the change in technology, I no longer believe the best editing setup is a CRT TV and computer monitor for editing.

I presently have an HD monitor with my desktop. The video card can support a second monitor. The video card also supports 3D HD and my Blu-ray burner drive supports 3D Blu-ray as does the latest version of the Nero Suite that I have (Version 12). Windows 8 is designed for a touch screen environment.

Would it be to my advantage to get aa 3D HD monitor with a HDMI connection as my second monitor? Or, should I get a touch screen monitor to replace the original monitor and add the 3D HD monitor later? I cannot afford to buy both. They are expensive. I am hoping to buy on or the other before the year is out. If I go for a touch screen, I would move over the HD monitor as the second monitor until I could afford the 3D monitor.

I am thinking about the future of media in film too. Although, 3D Blu-ray may fissile out because the sales are not what TV manufacturers were hoping for.

I think this is a good bang for the buck.

I was even thinking about the possibilities of a second monitor for Windows 8 before I saw the above video demo because of the metro screen and desktop interfaces that cannot be up at the same time with a single monitor computer. This above demo video confirms productivity can be increased with two monitors. At least one should be touch screen with a stylus pen.
