Use the "start" command to run the equivalent of a "background process" on
Windows.  This will start the program in a new window, and return control
back to the calling program.  Using "start /min" will open the window in a
minimized state.

Just about any multi-processor *nix system will do this for you.

You tell me.  :-)
