Multi-Tasking.
February 3, 2008 by kboutelle
So, what is your computer doing for you right now? As I write this, mine is performing the following;
- Streaming the super bowl from my PVR.
- Burning a music CD from my music library on my home network.
- Editing a Google doc.
- Writing this blog post.
- Running Twhirl (2 accounts) so I can keep up with others watching the game.
- Running Trillian, which is alerting me about tweets and allowing me to catch hell from friends that know I’m on-line (this could ave been a mistake, LOL)
- Fetching email from work and Gmail.
- Editing in Photoshop CS3.
- Intermittently recording audio and video as I try to get my newsletter scripts “just right”.
- Editing in Camtasia the audio and video that is recorded.
Best part is that it’s not even breathing heavy. Task manager states less than 20% processor used and less than 1GB memory in use (amazing what happens when you turn virtual memory off). This is true PC nirvana even though I could really use my second monitor. Please don’t take that to mean that I wish I was at work right now.
