Apple's engineering group is much smaller than Microsoft's (or probably anyone else's). What's the GDP per engineer at Apple vs any other product company (like MSFT, Google or Samsung)?
EDIT: Which is to say, I believe bureaucracy is more likely in larger organizations and that the scale of MSFT's engineering org makes it unmanageable.
