Please be patient with me Peter... I must get my head around this to implement it properly...

So if you do the context switch, then the task CAN take longer than 1 tasktick ? 
If not how could you use more time than the isr would allow ?

If the task CAN take longer than 1 tasktick, then does it keep the next task on-time ?
Let's say we had two task that are at 10 tick intervals, but have a 5 tick offset.
Could both of these tasks take 3 taskticks each time they are run, and still always be exectuted  "on-time" ?
If that is the case, then it makes sense... If not how does the context switch allow longer tasks ?
