This works OMM (OS 10.6.4 on Intel Core 2 Duo):

    tell application "Finder"
        if exists window 1 then
            set target of window 1 to folder "MacHD:"
        else
            open window of folder "MacHD:"
        end if
        delay 2
        set target of window 1 to folder "MacHD:Developer:"
        delay 2
        set target of window 1 to folder "MacHD:Developer:Extras:"
        delay 2
        set target of window 1 to folder "MacHD:Developer:Extras:CoreAudio:"
    end tell

Of course, the above code uses needless repetition, but demonstrates the idea, anyway.

HTH,
