NT and Win2K will as well. A great card for this is the new Matrox G400 - it's a single card with dual output heads. With VFP6 SP3 and the Matrox, it's workable to put the app on one screen and the debugger on another, and with 32MB of RAM, you can easily run both screens at high resolution.

Dual screens worked with VFP5, but VFP5 couldn't resolve mouse and screen coordinates on the secondary monitor correctly.
