Console Writes from Multiple Threads

In a VB 2005 Console Application, can multiple threads write to the console
without causing problems? I know this is a quick way to destabilize a
Windows Forms application.

Yes they can. Of course if you want the output to appear in a
predictable way you'll still need to synchronize the writes.

Thanks - syncing the writes isn't a problem with synclock.
