(ugh ugh ugh)

Uh Oh. I can see that my short, harmless message about multitasking is
going to get me in a lot of trouble. I didn't say that multitasking was
USELESS, I just said that most people really don't really use it to
its fullest advantage, and that its absence was NOT enough of a flaw in
and of itself to make MPW an inferior development environment.

I like mulittasking. I don't think its useless. I wish the Mac had it.
But I still say that even without multitasking that MPW is a better
and more productive development environment than your basic UNIX system,
which was the whole point of that statement.

Is everybody happy now?

Andy
