Basic questions about Windows

Will windows (386) allow me to run as many applications programs as possible
in a total of 640K or will it use my full 2MB and partition it off.  I often
would like to run 2 or 3 applications programs each of which need at least 350K
and in one case 600K.  Is there any way I can simultaneously run a 600K, 400K, 
and 350K program all at the same time.  If not, what good is windows if all of
your programs have a DOS access feature.

Thanks in advance for answering a simple but important (to me at least) 53estion.

Neil
