There's a TThread.CreateAnonymousThread in Delphi XE which allows for simple execution of background tasks.

A trivial demo:

TThread.CreateAnonymousThread(
  procedure begin
    Sleep(10000); // replace with a real workload
  end
).Start;

Minimal in the releases themselves. In Delphi 2009 they added support for anonymous methods in TThread.Synchronize, and in XE they added a thread-communication queue to Generics.Collections.

But the community has contributed some interesting stuff. For example, check out OmniThreadLibrary.
