The type of Hungarian notation Spolsky uses at Fog Creek is different than the Hungarian once pushed by Microsoft.
Hungarian notiation (of any variety) started (and ended) at Microsoft.
Also, if you're working at Fog Creek, the guy who has to maintain your code after you will also be using Hungarian.
If you're working at Fog Creek you're writing code in a custom in-house programming language as well as using Hungarian notation. I don't think the example is generally useful or applicable to anyone else.
