Chris, I have no doubt... You're right, this premise has been around for a while. If you haven't read "MicroSerfs" I would encourage you to do so; great book about a group of programmers that leave Microsoft and form their own company. The part I refer to is a chapter where one of the female programmers says some very similar things in your article. Anyway, I thought it might be interesting to see if others have read it.
