>Same comment about running multiple browser windows. In
general you will not impede the performance of any given
window unless you are actively using the bandwidth
somewhere else at the moment; just having the window
open won't do it by itself.<

I agree with everything you say. However, having multiple windows open can eat up system resources on under-equipped machines and degrade performance. It is not unusual to see a lack of memory, for instance, mistaken for a bandwidth problem. (On the other hand there are rare situations that, through the benefit of a cache, one machine with multiple windows open will seem to out-perform two machines that seek the same information).

Michael
