  I just encountered something very distressing in Compute! magazine. The 
article says that I CANNOT multitask with Windows 3.0 on a 80286? I 
wanted to be able to run my BBS in the backround, and other applications 
in the foreground. This WILL NOT work? I have 9 megs of RAM, and 150 megs 
of storage, on a 12 MHz AT......
 
 
   Please, Someone tell me this isn't true!!

There is something fascinating about science. One gets such wholesale
returns of conjecture out of such a trifling investment of fact.
