Most original Microsoft devs are millionaires, yes. I think Microsoft created the biggest group of billionaires and millionaires, out of any company.

Yup, found it:

> The company's 1986 initial public offering (IPO), and subsequent rise in its share price, created three billionaires and an estimated 12,000 millionaires among Microsoft employees.

12k millionaires! Let that sink in :)
