He could've done the same thing with DOS if he bought DesqView. That let you multitask multiple DOS applications on a 386.

Not quite. The multiple screen thing allowed several full screen graphical applications with different resolutions on screen at once, divided by a vertical barrier (a title bar similar to those on windows). This was a hardware feature at its core, if memory serves me right.

Yes, I remember the screen feature on my A500. It was neat.

To say a 386 is limited to single tasking is wrong though. That was my main point.
