So on the tablet I'd ideally like to have all those programs open at once and able to switch between nearly instantaneously, vs having to close out an app and open another every time I need to do something else.
but what you're explaining isn't multi-tasking. that's just going from one task to the next. sounds like a 2 button press on an iPad. is that really all that much to complain about?
