The article you speak of appeared quite sometime ago on LinuxWorld Magazine. The article was entitled "Dual Booting Linux on a Mac: Yellow Dog Linux vs Ubuntu Linux vs Mac OS X" by Dave Taylor. The article in referring to Mr. Taylor's background was very low key; the article itself was more than enough to demonstrate the level and quality of his expertise.
The link you provided takes him down, in my eyes, a notch or more as I would have expected that someone with formal training not to have made the errors in assumptions or the technical choices he made.

I can also confirm your suspicion -- I read the exact same thing many weeks ago somewhere else (can't remember where though) in relation to the evils of dynamic partitioning of drives.
Thank goodness you saw it too! I thought I had gone crazy again! Deja vu -- that feeling that somewhere, sometime, this has all happened before.
Best wishes,
Clint
