Windows and buffers are different beasts.  Eg.g a buffer can be shown in
several windows at the same time or in no window at all.

If by "minimize" you also include "don't display", then just use a single
window and switch between them with C-x b or with the Buffers menu, or with
M-x bury-buffer, or by clicking with mouse-1/mouse-3 on the buffer-name in
the mode-line, or ... with any number of included or third party
buffer-switching packages.
