Some netters replied to my first sermon on multitasking with the classical
response about doing something else while downloading files. Hell, you do
not need a multitasking environment to do this, just get a hold of one of
the telecom packages on the market that allows backgound file transfers.

You don't need a full blown multitasking environment for something as simple
as file transfers in the background!
