30 apps! What are you running QUAD Xeon's with 2TB of ram.
The behavior you are describing is called grouping, I believe it is intended to mimic
some sort of Redmond Disease. You should be able to tailor it in the properties of your task bar.

    Thanks for the information about resizing.  I looked on that same
configuration tab and missed it multiple times.

    Guess the only practical difference regarding taskbar ordering is
ease of finding the just launched application.  If you have 30
applications open, launch a new one, and switch to another application
while it's launching, you expect it to be at the end of your taskbar,
not to have to go hunting through all 30 application references on the
taskbar to find it.
    Mainly, it's just personal preference.  I usually fire things up in
a particular order and have gotten used to finding them in that order.
