In My Humble Opinion
1

How many windows do you have open/activated right now?

I’ve got 8.

2

I’ve got 4:

Outlook
Excel
Hyperion Pillar
IE

1st three are pretty much the cover for the last one, which is the only one I’m paying attention to - shh…don’t tell my boss

3

three.

Well, since I don’t have too many open to type them all down, I’ll answer this one:

5:

Eudora
Winamp
Word
Netscape (2 windows)

I’m contemplating making the move to Calculator too. Oh, the drama.

The average is more like 6 to 10, but it’s Friday and I’m unmotivated.

7

Outlook
Spinner
IE (2 windows)
Dreamweaver
Homesite
Real Player

8, as well:

e-mail
cd player
word perfect
SDMB (5 times)

I only have one…AOL.

Ohh good think you didn’t catch me at work. At home only 1 window open right now. I generally don’t open more than three or four with my 64 Megs of RAM before I can feel the windows crawling over each other.

If I had seen this thread at work, I’d have well over 20 windows open since I’m supposed to be carefuly watching the ATM trunks & frame relay clouds that connect the MD/DC/VA/WV regions. But it’s not a problem there because I have over 1 Gig of RAM on that machine.

Four:

  1. Outlook Express
  2. SDMB - BBQ Pit
  3. SDMB - IMHO
  4. SDMB - Reply to Topic window
11

Two ICQ chat windows.
Internet Explorer: straight dope.
Inbox, Outlook Express.
Winamp.
Would be more, but I’m not actually doing any work right now!

12

9, but it’s slow right now. Sometimes I get so many out of Netscape that it puts a scroll bar on the task bar… that’s when there’s more than 25!

13

Three:

Internet Explorer
Napster
AIM Buddy List

14

9- 1 Realjukebox and 8 IE.

15

Four:

IE
Excel
Outlook
DesignCAD

16

One, but I’m at home right now, and even here I usually have three; IE, Eudora, and a solitaire game of some sort.

At work I will normally have at least seven; 1 to Outlook, 5 BosaNova links to the AS/400, and IE to SDMB. Sometimes A seagull link to JD Edwards, sometimes a window to Progress (production system) on the network. Sometimes Word.

17

I have atleast 7 open at once during my normal work day – Outlook, Vantive, 5 IE windows. at times it balloons up to 9 or 10

18

4 - Photoshop, Netscape, and 2 open in SoundJam.

19

2 Netscape-- 1 for the SDMB, the other for my web e-mail
1 BetterTelnet-- accessing my UH UNIX account
1 SoundApp playlist (now playing: Aerosmith’s “Dream On”)
1 Stickies (in yellow, of course!)
1 ICQ

… for a grand total of 6.

20

Five including ICQ. It’d be about 8 if I was at work.
