Please don't use projects such as the Apollo or Manhattan program as examples. These projects are huge and have considerable amounts of money and man-power behind them, which most IT projects nowadays don't have. I did a quick check on Wikipedia and the Apollo program cost in 2005 dollars $170 Billion dollars. I believe the problem with IT is that vendors have sold management that their solutions will solve all their problems with little effort or man-power. The do more with less mantra has been oversold.
