What difficulties, specifically, would hamper the implementation of
a true multitasking operating system on the Mac?  I'm curious about
the details, hardware and software.  What necessary hardware does
the machine lack?  What about the existing software would cause
dire headaches for the implementor of a multitasking operating 
system on the Mac?
