E.g. receiving data from asynchronous links or TCP/IP is done in objects 
that contain an internally hidden thread that waits for incoming data. 
When data is received, a main thread event is fired and the programmer 
can happily use this data without bothering at all about thread 
synchronization.

Of course this works with any number of instances of such objects, while 
the application programmer does not see any threads at all.
