Yea, and he's the same guy who said "OS/2 is destined to become the most
important Operating System, if not program of all time." It looks like he was
right!
People don't need multitasking, but computers do. I am writing a message right
now, and it gets my full attention. I'm also rendering a huge animation, which
doesn't need my attention. It's nice to be able to do them both without
another box on my desk.
