Yes!  I've been running it for several weeks now, and I love it.  it's
less distracting when DX4WIN isn't on the monitor I'm currently doing
real work on.

In your preferences, on the Screen tab, make sure you check "Leave all
windows in original position".  Otherwise when you exit DX4WIN and
re-start, the windows will all be moved back to the default monitor.

Also be careful doing things like updating graphics drivers while
DX4WIN is running.  It can re-size or move the windows during the
update.   Even though Windows 7 no longer makes me reboot after
updating my NVIDIA drivers, I always try to make sure that any
critically-sized program (like DX4WIN) is closed, so windows don't get
re-sized or moved.
