We've got plenty of dual monitor NT4 workstations using Matrox G400 and G450 dualhead cards, never tried it with NT server though. I would have thought it would work just the same..

I second dcain, but bear in mind, that nearly the weirdiest problems on the NT are contributed by incorrect/incompatible video driver.

I definitely would think real hard before doing that.

Are you running Web publishing, or CAD, on the server?

2000 can do 10. Something to think about.

Just a repeat of the above mentioned caveats. I run dual monitors using the Matrox G400 Dual Head, but there are issues with the drivers that can result in minor performance problems. To their credit Matrox has been very agressive in tracking down and killing these problems, but htey are something to keep in mind. If you must have multiple monitor support and NT-level security/stability then an upgrade to 2000 would be money well spent.
