I think that I heard a lot more about companies that were "two guys in a garage" in the 90s than I hear about these days, yes. It could be just my perception, or it could be reality.
I'm just callin' it as I see it. As someone who sits in this world more or less 24/7, I can't remember the last time (prior to the last couple months) where a bootstrapped company gained wide-acceptance like has been happening recently.
