Hey, if you folks are really into nostalgia, I'll send you all a
copy a free copy of Kickstart 0.007, the first version which implemented
multitasking. It supports any number of processes at a time, provided that
none of them actually do any computation or input/output, and you have at
least 28 MB of RAM.
Rumor has it that Kickstart 0.007 was mysteriously stolen,
resurfacing several years later, with minor cosmetic changes, as
"MultiFinder."
