Having them run and having them run well are two different things. It
isn't the number applications rather how much demand they put on
Vista. You can tell if Vista is straining if it starts to get
sluggish, ie, the mouse/keyboard is slow to respond, images can be
seen getting drawn instead of appearing instantly, web pages take
longer to load, etc..

How many programs you have running is not an indicator of how good
your performance is. All programs are not of equal size or complexity.
Some programs will be busy doing something almost all the time, others
may be idle unless you are actively doing something with them. It's
not possible to measure anything that way, simply by the number
running.
