There is a difference between multitasking and multiprocessing.

Really?  I've found it (Win32) a benefit in my own software projects.  Using
MFC allows me to not have to concentrate so much on the user interface,
and more on the applications.  It makes adding (for instance) 3D graphics
using OpenGL (try that one with DOS) to my app quite simple.  My codes
are far from useless.
