Watch Linux multitask and repeat that! Does AmigaDOS really multitask 
better than Linux?

I've used AmigaDOS a couple of times very briefly. I'm not too impressed,
but I'd like to try it out some more though. But knowing it lacks memory
protection (yes - one program can bring the whole system down), multi-
userness, networking and security, I would hardly call it a BETTER OS than
Linux or Unices in general.
