I strongly recommend you disable this feature of windows on any systems
you set up for the less computer literate because I can tell you form
experience with novice users that its a very bad feature.

Usability tests still show that opening a new window confuses people.
They can't work out whey they can't go back and don't seem to be
aware of the task bar. I'm not sure how users react to tabbed
browsers but in my own limited experience its very much the same,
they seem totally unaware of the tab bar.
The problem is compounded by systems which show only one item in the
taskbar for all the windows for a given application. This saves space
on the taskbar, but makes it less obvious when a new window is opened.
