- Information about Workbench
-
- The Amiga's Workbench Graphical User Interface (GUI) allows you to control
- the Aniga by using a mouse to select symbols in the form of icons, or small
- pictures, and list-like menus. The workbench is easy to learn and use
- because the icons and menus are displayed automatically. You do not have
- to memorize a long list of commands to accomplish a task.
-
- Multitasking is the ability to run several independent programs at one
- time. Because the Amiga was designed from the start as a multitasking
- system with a GUI, it is fast and easy to switch tasks (programs) when you
- need to. Not only can programs programs run at the same time on the Amiga,
- but they can also share information and computer resources, allowing you to
- do more work without requiring additional software and memory.

- The Workbench and multitasking are features common to all Amigas, from
- single floppy models to the most advanced workstation-level machines that
- are used for three-dimensional graphics, multimedia, and video production.
