It's not true Multitasking; that's why its called Multifinder.  Since all
Macintosh users know what the finder is, and what multi means, the name
Multifinder correctly describes the new product.  It's just many copies
of the finder running at the same time.  It really isn't practical to have
most mac programs running at the same time because they are so user
dependant.  If there isn't someone clicking a mouse they don't do anything.  
If users want true multitasking they'd buy an Amiga.
