... ort back tomorrow', or next week, or whatever.
I would also like to be able to say 'don't bother
me now, come back later', or 'do not disturb'.
This sounds pretty much like a manager controlling
a bunch of people who report to him, and I think
this is a useful metaphor for how people will deal
with PCs in future. I want to be able to give my
PC various tasks to get on with, and then I would

Racial Equality Malcolm X

Can we really achieve equality? I do believe it is
possible but it is obvious that there is no single
answer to such a question. Everyone has their own
opinion in regards to this question, however those
opinions are useless unless they are actually
carried out. According to W. E. B. DuBois racial
equality can be achieved through the talented
