A threading white paper

Tyler and I have been working on a white paper about threading for a long time now, figured I should try out the blog's new "attachments" feature and share a draft of it with you so you don't need to wait for the next CTP. 

One major caveat -- the sample code is ancient and won't work in current builds.  The threading APIs haven't changed for more than a year, but other random bits of code we used to build complete samples have changed -- we'll get that fixed for the final version of the paper.

So MS is now recommending using the "dispatcher" in stead of actually having the developer needed to hand-code threading, but at the same time able to take advantage of multi-core hardware ?

hkai -- Posting background items to the dispatcher is a great alternative to threading, IF the reason you're considering threading is UI responsiveness.  But it's not a multithreaded approach so it won't take advantage of multiple processors.

# Dispatch It

WPF, like most UI frameworks, runs in a single thread. That's why if you do background work, and want
