Have you heard the News! Apple finally got Public Screens HAHAHAHAHA! ridiculously late. although Linux has had it for a while in the form of workspaces.
Apple is calling theirs: MultiDesktops............tsk tsk tsk..........these companies are getting the credit for evertything Amiga invented first.
Actually they are calling it "Spaces"... and it's vastly superior to anything the Amiga currently has. All the spaces can be seen at once, and windows can be dragged between them... there are other configurational features too... all in all a very elegant solution... though one that is long overdue.
Anyway, I will rejoice in the fact that I still think Amigas Multitask the most properly.
I'm not even sure "Amigas Multitask the most properly" is even correct grammar... anyway, what the hell are you taking about? Single CPU based Amiga, PC and Mac systems all use the same technique to multitask... except Windows and MacOS X have much newer and more advanced scheduling algorithms which make better use of the CPU time and can be tuned to suit the users needs better (one requires executive for AmigaOS to come close to this).
MultiCore/Processor based PCs and Macs obviously actually multitask for real, something that only Dave Haynie's "Gemini" based Amiga 3000 has ever done (though he never said if it actually worked).
