Senor,

Well wait no longer!  These days, by gosh, we got everything from spawns to
execs to named synchronization objects to... dare I say it?... yes, even
threads!  Gone are the days when alls a guy could do was fork dozens of exact
duplicates of the process he was already running when all he wanted was a little
concurrency!

Oh, and don't worry, ALL the OSes gots 'em!

And you're so smitten with fork that you need to start "namecalling"?
