I was argueing with my friend about multitasking.  He conceded that the Amiga
multitasking might be better becuase it was built around that concept.  He
will not admit that Amiga m*tasking might be faster for the same reason.  
I would like to get the information on what multitasking means as a general term and the basic theory behind the  m*tasking in the Amiga.

Please no specifics.  GENERAL information only.  The handeling of graphics 
update by the custom chips is general info if that is what they do.

I have posted a similar article in *introduction with a little bit more detail.
If you think this post belongs there please follow up in that group.
