- 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."
