[Windows Phone 7 General] style1:
you know its possible for people to disagree without arguing...I don't think I've slandered anyone and I hope to keep it that way...but I've had my name dragged through the mud...why? cause I disagree? cause you don't see my point and I don't see yours. I don't figure adults to go calling people stupid (or at least 'kinda' stupid as is what I've been called)but I guess thats the nature of the beast here.

I will leave this alone since its degenerated into name calling (which it always does) but I just want to part on this note. since you only copy and respond to half messages clearly out of context I want to ask you a few questions. Hopefully upon answering I can join this in crowd that has all the answers even the ones that haven't been shared with the rest of us ('kinda stupid people')

I ask 'wtf is preemptive multitasking system' not because I don't know what it is but as you clearly pointed out, WP&, Zune, Iphone, Android, WM6.5 all do it...but all do it differently. I asked because I wanted to know to what length is MS going with their multitasking system? I saw in a video where the guy was in a program, hits the back button..it sent him to the previous program he was in, he hit the back button again, it sent him the to the program he was in prior to that (not the previous screen...the previous program btw). Now of course I figure that would be the phone keeping a list and pausing programs allowing us to go back through them.

Now if we were to take that for whatever it is, and we were to take that same situation and say, I opened 2 MS programs (calendar and contacts for the sake of example)and 1 3rd party app (lets say a weather program) that I would be able to go back to calendar and contacts app but the weather app would close itself since its 3rd party?

Also, since the OS is clearly not completely finished (according to MS anyway) do you think that since this back button may or may not be used to go into the previous program and that that the OS is keeping track of the open apps, dont you think its possible for there to be a full task manager implemented as if to say I don't want to click back 3 times to get back to the app I want to go to so I hold the back button and it will show us a list of open apps that we can go back to? Could that be a possibility? If it is a possibility could it be considered multitasking is the OS does this even though it closes out 3rd party apps? If a basic task manager couldn't be implemented why is there a back button to cycle through previously opened apps? How long do the apps stay in the cycle to be reached by the back button?

Also, MS has said that (according to the links provided) that 3rd party apps will have options to multitask (HUBS I assume) so if I tag a game to the home screen does that mean its constantly updating, like I can exit a game at the pause menu and since they HUB's constantly stay connected, i can enter the game at the pause menu...or will it start the game back over from the beginning?

I don't have the answer to these types of questions...I would like to have these answers. Since no one is willing to take me up on the wait till MIX, and since I'm stupid (kinda) I assume you guys do have these answers in definite...Clue me in please. Hell you might save me the flight out to MIX...lol. Anyway...I'm definitely not trying to pick a fight with you guys. Its 2 vs 1...majority must always be right, we elected Bush twice. Bully tactics have prevailed in this case....I'll be outta here. I will say that it was good however to see differing opinions and it has given me somethings to consider as I head into MIX. Thanks for the flame, I got schooled
