The switcher only accomodates four or more applications if you reduce the
memory of each application a bit.  Four times 128 kByte would leave no space
for the system.  Agreed that the system error is a bit harsh, but reportedly
you can get back to the switcher after system errors with a chord like
command-option-shift-period.

To reduce the memory of an application, choose "configure then install"
from the Switcher menu.  Again, if you reduce it too much, it will bomb.
Good luck!
