At Stanford's "MacFest" yesterday someone asked about the Juggler.
The response from Apple was that Apple realizes there are problems with the
Switcher and there is work going on to create a more robust and better
"multitasking-style" finder. "You might see more developments within
the next year to 18 months."

BTW, "Juggler" is the name of the ray-traced, 4096-color
character that juggles three transparent spheres on the Amiga. (In the
Amiga world he has become as famous as Max Headroom, although he is
not as versatile...)  I wonder if Eric Graham (the creator of the Juggler)
has a copyright on that name? I wonder if Apple can be sued? Hmm...  8-)
