Hello 
              World, I'm looking for a program allowing an IBM PC/XT with 
              512kb of
RAM to multitask with two programs running in parrallel,preffarably having

prioratising facilities.I already have a VMIX 286 OS & have been unsuccessful
in implementing my the Spawn facility on the VMIX 286 .I would be ever so 
grateful if anyone can solve this spawning problem or provide a ready made
package/ facility to enable multitasking on such a micro.               
             Many Thanks,

                In anticipation,
                              Will Low.
