Try reading Byte, 1987 (can remember if its May or June issue) where they go over the Multifinder in depth and show that it is indeed a multitasking OS. Uh, no, I'm sorry, but you're incorrect. All Macs since Multifinder came along have been able to multitask. Multifinder (and System 7, since it has Multifinder
