This is one of the main reasons I prefer the Amiga so much over the Mac. 
Hopefully in the future the mac will get real multitasking, but for now
Multifinder just does not cut it.  All programs should multitask and require
no special effort by the programmer to get them that way.  Of course you could
switch to A/UX but does it allow you to run more than 1 mac Application? 
Those who feel that MultiFinder is enough, or that multitasking is not
necessary in a home computer, have never tried true multitasking.
