Read it in the Sunday San Jose Mercury News (8/9/87):

Apple will announce a multi tasking version of the Finder at the Boston
MacWorld Expo.  This is assumed to be in response to IBM's OS/2
vaporware, which will be multitasking.

FINALLY!!!!  Now let's find out the details:

o	is it _really_ multitasking or more like Switcher?

o	which programs cannot be run concurrently?

o	how do we get a copy, and when will it be available?

o	what's the minimum hardware configuration?
