BTW, given that Microsoft uses their own compilers and tools, and they do 
manage to put out some pretty sophisticated software that takes lots of 
people to build, it would seem that the tools are sufficiently flexible to 
avoid show-stopping hundreds of programmers working on a massive system.

Yes, Vista was late. We all know that.
