I suppose Project could have undergone a major redesign, but I doubt it. Last I tried to use it, it couldn't even order tasks properly based on the resources assigned. I found it to be a glorified picture generator, not a tool to actually help schedule a project. I recall some tools from the mainframe or VMS days that knew how to do what you want. Of course, they weren't GUI-based, and I don't know if they are still around.
