I do typically ... if I am working on several research projects
concurrently, I can have 6 programs and 20 to 30 windows open for days.
I can handle this on a Linux or XP machine even without resorting to
their optional optional multiple/ virtual desktop features but I just
don't attempt it with the OS X machines available to me because of
Apple's more serially oriented interface.

Great operating system otherwise but whenever I am using OS X and
multi-tasking between programs, web pages, files etc, I am spending a
LOT of time struggling with the various windows... trying to find
one I had open before, trying to get others I have, open out of the
way etc.
Hmmm, I also have several programs running at once with multiple
windows but I love using the dock. When I was on Windows, I put a
dock-like software on that so I could have the same function there. I
guess you must have a LOT more running than I do if it's hard to find
them on the dock.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of
arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather
to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, wine in the other, body
thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a
ride!" Have a wonderful day!
