You can handle as many as your computer will allow, memory and connection 
wise.

AFAIK Lambda does not have any limits built in.

Personally, I think your boss needs to rethink that one.  You must 
remember that all rooms in Lambda have 'perfect sound', in that you 
always hear everything that is going on around you.  It's going to be too 
noisy, and the player won't use it.

There is no way I would visit a room where 2000 people are talking 
simultaneously.

Talk about Spam :)   Hehehe.  Spam City :^)
