Cloanto critisize AmigaXL marketing : Comment 69 of 82 | ANN.lu |

Microsoft have not redefined real-time. They don't claim that their operating systems are real-time. And the definition of real-time is the ability to guarantee a response to an event/interrupt within a specified time period. Hard real-time systems are usually designed around the task that they are running, not the other way around.
Multitasking, as Solar said, was defined in its current meaning before Microsoft existed.
And as for humans multitasking. Show me. You will find yourself switching between the tasks anyway... talking and walking does not count. Try thinking and thinking at the same time... |
