It even works at *full* 60fps (tested with Starpath Frogger) on my old
P166, using Win95a and DirectX 5 (though without sound, guess I have to
reinstall).

Definitely yes!
I think it won't run very fast with my current PC, but I guess the
chances of buying me a faster PC are much higher than buying a LCD
monitor.
And yes, I would like to see the scanline count too. Should be easy to
overlay that number. And maybe some other information display might be
useful for players (e.g. difficulty switches, palette mode, used
controllers) and developers (e.g. current fps, bankswitching mode and
way too many more to name them all ;-).
Have fun!
