Why not use AIO? Then you don't need to handle the thread creation,

you want read. Then, when you are ready, you can see if the AIO was
completed.
Because I heard AIO is sometimes implemented as threads underneath :)
So I might as well write my own thread code, and cut out the overhead.
Also, I want my code to run on Mac MachO, Win32, and Linux, and Mac
Carbon too. Not sure how that will work out with AIO.
And finally... I just like learning and doing new things. So getting
threads to work is kinda cool to me.
