Does leapFrog multitasks? I doubt so.

The Manager is _not_ a program switcher. It does perform coorporative 
multitasking on certain (new) software.

Future version of Switch It might support multitasking too.

: If you want, go out and buy GNO, a Unix-type multitasking shell for the GS.

GNO is more than just a shell... a limited Unix clone is more like it.
