If you look at her code (it's pretty short), her grid uses percentage widths for columns and her template defines either a fixed or a liquid layout. And her point that styles should be context-independent (CSS modules like legos, she says somewhere) is useful regardless of what designs you use.

It actually has comments, which you can see by clicking the app links, but no voting. The whole app-to-app mapping is a silly idea, though. Is powerpoint an alternative for Visio? depends on what your trying to do. Gimp is a fine alternative for Photoshop if you're making a web logo, animated gif or lolcat, but maybe not if you're a printshop.
