Namely preemptive multitasking

It's nice you can do all this stuff. However, the Mac still cooperatively multitasks which means you can't do all this at the same time.

With Windows 95 I can do several things all at the same time without waiting for the other app to release control.

Don't get me wrong, I like the Mac but basically we are seeing very slow incremental changes to the OS. I think OS X will be the transition that had Microsoft going from win 3.1x to win 95.
