Hey all - I tried searching the forums for an answer but couldnt find on, so I apologize if this has been answered already.

Im wondering if it is possible to hook up a second minitor to my iMac with Intel processor. If so how would I do it? Thanks for any help

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt about NOT finding info about this. Apple's iMac info page shows that, there is a connector at the back of your iMac, should be a mini-DVI. You can use that.

Look at the ports, it is the one on the far right.

does the OSX Tiger allow for a second monitor to be added seamlessly?

Yes. All versions of OSX (and Mac OS for a long time before) have seamlessly supported multiple screens.
