Currently it does, but only certain motherboard allow that. If you want more information about how 2 video card can run at the same time, it is commonly known as crossfire graphic card. For more information about this crossfire graphic card by ATI go to http://www.behardware.com/art/imprimer/573/ this website explain quite well how the crossfire graphic card of ATI works. Or if you are looking at the lastest technology. It would be the quad SLI™ by NVIDIA which support 4 graphics card together!!!But it is still not on the market yet! You can read more at http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_30228.html and http://www.nvidia.com/page/search.html?keywords=SLI
Hope this helps you =)

If you have an old computer, you can run one on AGP and one on PCI. With newer computers, you will usually have two PCI-express slots to combine them for better gaming performance.
Original reason for dual cards was so that you can have dual-monitor support. Once video cards started to come out with two monitor ports, then there wasn't a huge need for two video cards. Then, video card companies wanted to make more money, so they came up with a way to combine the power of two video cards. On the rare occasion, people will buy two video cards so they can have four monitor supports as well.

Yup... the mboards with dual slots run two cards, and they split the load between them (just like having a computer with multiple processors).
