How many windows do you have open on average?

I have 14 IE windows going and about 6 others for other programs. Am I abusing the whole "windows" concept? 😀
 
For leisure use, I have 3 or so. For work, I will have as many as 10. I'm a maintenance junky so the thought of 10 makes me cringe, but they're all necessary (different apps).

1 explorer windows minamized to bar
1 DC++ window connected to the HUB i run - Minamized to tray
1 WASTE window (AT waste server) minaized to tray

get mozilla firebird, your taskbar will love you for it
 
Typically I'll have one Mozilla window open, running 2-3 tabs. Since discovering tabbed browsing, I find that I hate opening multiple browser windows.
 
Workspace 1: 4 xterm's
Workspace 2: xchat
Workspace 3: Mozilla Firebird
Workspace 4: Mozilla Thunderbird
Workspace 5: DCGUI
Workspace 6: A BitTorrent download

Ha, a crappy small apartment! 😀

My little place is only 500 square feet, and I have 3 windows in the living room, 2 in the bedroom, one in the bathroom, and one in the kitchen!

So I have 7 windows open when it's nice out.

:beer:😀:beer:
 
Bare minimum of three. Firebird, winamp, and AIM+.

Average of probably 6-7. MS Word, mIRC, and Freecell are the more frequently used along with the basics listed above.
 
4-6 normally when i'm actually working on something on the computer. 5 right now.

not counting stuff running in the tray.
 
For leisure...about 5 windows:
Media Player
2-3 Firebird with several tabs each

AIM

For work about 10-15 depending on what I am doing:
1 Firebird with MyPhpAdmin
2-3 Firebird with Devel. site open and several tabs.
2-3 IE6 windows
Dreamweaver MX
Flash MX (sometimes)
