}
Is screen.isFullScreenSupported() always true for monitors?

No, it may not be true.
The SecurityManager might disallow you the full screen control. Mainly because one could easily fake whole screen in order to grab a password from not-suspecting user (you could mock a bank website).
It can be false:
- in an applet
- in a WebStart Application
- while running in headless mode
JavaDOC of GraphicsDevice.isFullScreenSupported:
Returns true if this GraphicsDevice supports full-screen exclusive
mode. If a SecurityManager is installed, its checkPermission method
will be called with AWTPermission("fullScreenExclusive").
isFullScreenSupported returns true only if that permission is granted
