Indeed. Even his first example of library computers seems off. In 1998, my library was part of a small network of libraries in my city, searching the catalogue involved making network requests over ISDN, and, while impressive for the time, it was not fast.
I can definitely get behind the Gmaps UX rant, but that's nothing to do with speed.
