"Well, there is Fast User Switching on OS X, too.

Does not log out the first user, but the second user can log in and check his email while the download continues in the background.

Fast User Switching can be enabled in the Accounts preference pane (Login Options).
It comes with a nice cube animation that was quite spectacular at the time."
