He's saying that 5 years ago most, if not all, tech ventures were
viewed through the lens of how Microsoft would react or what they'd
think about it.  Today, however, is different: nobody seems to care.

I guess I agree with him quite a bit.  His statement about "care about
computers" are really probably referring to venture capital firms and
people on the edge of tech development.

In the end he's really saying that Microsoft is a desktop company and
the desktop is dead.  He's saying that they'll continue to make lots
of money servicing the desktops that will always be there, but the
future isn't about desktop apps, it's about web apps.  And that's
something Microsoft never figured out.  It's not in their DNA.
