Well, I don't think we were talking about 3DS for Windows… We were
talking about 3DS. I have also heard that modem communication in the
'background' isn't really 'in the background'. The communications software
must have total control of the port when it is sending or receiving.
Therefore, a 'wait' has to be sent if you make a request for something that
has priority over the communication software…. kinda like a bicycle
asking a freight train to stop so it can go across the way I see it <g>.
I'm no expert on Windows, that's for sure. It's just not ready for the kind
of abuse I want to put to it… other users in our firm don't mind since
they have never had to wait on the computer too much (they're still
learning the software…).
