Enough about multi-tasking in spite of all obstacles.  If you want it on an
ST RIGHT NOW, and are willing to put up with some problems, don't ask Atari
for it, buy MINIX from Prentice-Hall.  It's a bit slow, because of the
message-passing design, but it's capable, flexible, affordable and EXTREMELY
well-supported (through the newsgroup comp.os.minix).  If you need it, it's
there.  Otherwise, forget about it.
