Yes. Windows (since Win95, that I know of) will manage both too.
Look into Ultramon though, it takes off all the rough edges like not being able to move a maximized window to the other monitor and alot more.

Yes, it's been possible for over 10 years. Windows treats it as one continguous desktop. Many games even support dual monitor. Most people are familiar with this very common feature already, check out the LCD thread in the display forum.

Oh. and once you go there, there's no going back....you get hooked the first time you slide a window from one monitor to the other!
