Set numbers include -
4421 (1000 pieces)
4423 (800 ??)
4780 (500)
4781 (300)
4782 (200)
Clicking through on a set takes you to a variety of ideas that you can

LEGO Digital Designer (LDD)
This page is interesting for a couple of reasons -

2. The term "bulk" is specifically used by LEGO on the page
3. Very close integration with the LEGO Digital Designer software
The legoideas.com page also has an updated brick palette for use with the
LDD software.
It seems to me that LEGO is really putting an effort behind the LDD software
and getting kids (and adults) to play with both LEGO and the computer at the
