Just to chime in, albeit a bit late... I for one **prefer** working with multiple windows/tabs....with the way I work, it helps me to not lose my place when browsing around 5-7 sites at a time (and usually bouncing back and forth waiting for them to finish loading) - yeah, I'm one of those hyper-browsers - one site/page at a time drives me insane. However, I absolutely agree it depends on the target audience and the context that the window is opened in. Some places it will work, and others it will not. Leave it to your user research and testing to figure out what works best for you.
