What the _hell_ is that supposed to mean?  I really think Seven Hills should
watch out when they make claims about other people's products, especially
when they obviously know nothing about them.  FYI, GNO multitasks, and it'll
multitask just fine with Spectrum, as long as they don't "[do] anything
to intentionally break it".

It's stuff like this that really infuriates me about SHS.  It's unnecessary
and cheap.
