A "true" multitasking cpu, one that can execute more than one instruction at once. I don't think so. I don't think so either. He's narrowed the industry-accepted definition to CPU-only. Multitasking is the capability of executing more than one process at once. Some processors may be better prepared to do that than others, but any conventional processor still is only executing one instruction at a time--at least that was still the case last time I paid attention to the latest innovations in CPUs. :) Think superscaler CPUs. |
