Gee, on the Amiga you can download files, print files, edit a file,
and compile programs all at the same time.  In fact with its custom
hardware none of these things get in the way of each other at all.
The only CPU intensive program is the compiler.  You can even type
files to the screen at the same time if you want.  Since each application
has its own virtual screen, there is no conflict there either.

I like the mac a lot, but using a true multitasking, multiscreen OS
cannot be beat, IMHO.
