Windows in combination with AMD is great at multi tasking... it seems...

http://www.macworld.com/news/2006/05/17/turion/index.php


"Multicore processing allows control over many applications running on a single PC. AMD says 85 percent of PC users run six applications at once: antivirus, e-mail, firewall, spam protection, a pop-up blocker and spyware."

Nice to see all that power wasted on defense.

You can now run your fave PC games on mac now thanks to intel and their loverly core duo's, like I was saying you can now easily install windows on the new macs which include the new iMac, Mac Mini, Mac Book Pro and Mac Book. So you now have no excuse.

Really, may I introduce you guys to something called BootCamp? Never heard of it? I'm ashamed of you, with the Intel Processors, bascially, you can dual boot an Intel Core Duo Mac with Windows XP Pro, simple enough!

You don't have to be a genius or conduct a huge poll to figure it out
easy:

1.- antivirus of your choice
2.- spyware blocker of your chice
3.- a keylogger (from undetected spyware)
4.- MSN messenger (without your permission of course)
5.- Internet Explorer
6.- Solitaire

wow!, that's what I call multitasking!
