About multitasking, what's best : AmigaOS, Linux, or Winblows XP ?

[itix]

For who use a lot Linux and Winblows (XP, 2000, NT) could please tell us what OS does best multitasking and why. Amiga still does it better than the others ?

Linux and XP or NT. Windows 95 already equals with AmigaOS.

In AmigaOS multitasking stops when high priority process decides to busy loop. In Linux and Windows you can kill process at will.

MacOS and Windows 3.x dont have multitasking at all. They only pretend so.

Nope you can't. You can switch between programs, but they pause if they 'run' in background. Believe me, I tried

Can it even be defined as having cooperative multitasking then? I used win 3.1 in the old days, but cannot recall that it was this bad. But then again that was many years ago.

Windows 3.x had co-operative multitasking. Programs had to call a system function to let system do rescheduling. This is why it is called co-operative. Non-co-operative programs didnt multitask :-)
