Yes, I'm sure Visual Basic had a much better concurrency model
in 1983. Maybe even Visual C++ ten years later. Oh, wait, C++
doesn't have concurrency constructs built into the language, does it?

Incidentally, my first Ada program was 'The Dinning Philosophers'.
Brian Gloyer built one of the best all-time Java applets on
the same subject.
