I was checking .NET multithreading lately, and my book mentions that the
thread scheduler provides quantoms of a time to each thread in "round
robin" fashion.

Is there any on line reference about it? I suppose it is just a circular
fashion.

At the moment .NET uses the normal windows threads. Therefor you can find
more details on threading in

See: Inside Windows 2000 Third Editon
http://www.sysinternals.com/insidew2k.shtml

There are 37 pages only about Thread-Scheduling.
