Algorithm analysis, graph theory, information theory, higher order logic, number theory, and problem solving (et al) haven't changed much in a while. I realize in the article he points out specific technological stuff but a good CS program uses technology to drive home larger principles and ideas. I don't think CS degrees will be outdated any time soon.

Agreed, it's specifically because his early 90's education didn't focus on VB6, perl, and Gopher but rather logic and math that it is still relevant.
