Somebody in the ST group stated that multitasking is useless on a home.
without trying to start a war I posted that for most Amiga users, Technical
as well as non-technical (me) I believe multitasking on a home computer has
become second nature.  For me, it makes sense to be able to run Dpaint III and
say "oops, I forgot to listen to that new Sonix score!" boot up and run Sonix,
and say, "oops, I forgot I need to label my disks!", boot up the label program
and .....:-)!!

Is multi-tasking second nature for most Amiga users?
