I think the best example is using AREXX. A simple example would be how
VLT and TxEd+ are able to work together. Two programs, running concurrently
that are able to pass data back and forth to one another.

I know that the Mac cannot do this. The PC might, but I cannot think of
any specific examples at the moment.

This is the best example of a "real world" use for multitasking I can
think of at the moment. I'm sure that there are others.
