forget typeahead. multitasking is a sign of real bloat. quote from
the New York Times, 25 April 1989:
Real concurrency---in which one program actually continues to
function while you call up and use another---is more amazing but of
small use to the average person. How many programs do you have that
take more than a few seconds to perform any task?
