Four. I close tabs after use. Can't think of any reason to open 30+ apps and using them at the same time...
I have that many open in two scenarios quite often (often in multiple instances of Firefox).
One is as I'm working through programming issues, especially with new concepts that I'm unfamiliar with.
For instance yesterday I added In App Billing to an Android app for a client. Since I've never worked with IAB, I had a number of tabs open that contained the official documentation and a sample application, along with my Developer Dashboard at Google (these were open from the day before, and were probably up for 18 hours or so). As I worked through the integration, different issues would arise that required more research, that would often lead to a dozen articles or references that I'd have open while working through that particular issue.
The second scenario is my daily reading / browsing habit. I have about 10 "home pages" that I check multiple times a day (including Instagram, FaceBook, multiple City-Data forums, Feedly, Reddit, etc). I have these all open from a bookmark folder with one click so that they load in the background while I'm catching up on each one.
Once a particular tab is open, it will often have multiple new links to open (for instance I load the City-Data Internet forum, and there are new posts in 10 threads), and those are opened with a FF add-on called Snap Links. SN allows loading a group of links as tabs, and loading them one at a time, so that as I read through one thread, the others are loading in the background.
He must be using Windows 95. You're using 98 right?
