i am not certain 100% of all apps use 0% cpu but that's the concept involved in apple's implementation of multitasking: fast app switching. on apple's os x, one can have dozens of apps open for weeks or months and the cpu intelligently pauses, writes to disk, manages multiple cores, all for the app.

"The instinct of nearly all societies is to lock up anybody who is truly free. First, society begins by trying to beat you up. If this fails, they try to poison you. If this fails too, they finish by loading honors on your head." - Jean Cocteau (1889-1963)
