What a bizarre argument.  I have to be able to program a multitasking
OS to not recognize a poor one?

Then never critique a film you didn't like, if you aren't planning on
making one.

Never critisize a McDonalds hamburger, if you're not prepared to kill
a cow and make one yourself.

Don't make disparaging comments about a car's handling, unless you're
prepared to jump on the assembly line and build one yourself.

Here's the kicker- you'll blast Windows 95, but are you planning to
program a new OS for the PC's? No.

The Macs multitasking is "poor" because virtually every other OS that
reports to mulitask does it far better.

It wasn't a serious argument,  Lawson.
