Windows runs multiple programs sequentially - each program gets a
time slice.  Each program has to give up control before the next one
gets it's turn.

Don't EVER run a DOS program that has timing dependencies in a
DOS window.  In fact, anything newer than DOS 6.22 has potential
problems.  I have several old RSS programs that won't even run on
DOS 5 - I have several copies of DOS 3.3 here just for that and dBase.
