The big change here is Sarbanes Oxley. Post SOX, keeping CFOs at any company is tougher, and I think more so for tech companies whose accounting by nature is less concrete.
This has a huge impact for geeks because it also puts a relatively larger burden on small companies (there's about two mil. a year to be paid regardless of how big you are). So more of us will end up working at supermegasoft and less at smaller, friendlier companies than would have sans SOX.
