My company's software has been running with potentially 100+ threads at a
time for years without any problems.  Of course, most of the threads are
sleeping at the time, though, waiting for data from hardware, but still,
there are 100+ threads allocated and active at a time.

It should be noted that QueueUserWorkItem() only exists under Win2k, XP, and
2003 Server
