how do you mean? what other tutorial is like that one?
nope sorry, never seen that tutorial in my life, me and a colleage worked on this tutorial from scratch, from our imagination.
think what you like :p
Honestly, I don't see the relation between the two. Both tuts are nice but this one obviously covers more ground as far as layout design. Everybody and they mama uses a blue gradient on their sites nowadays because it looks attractive and professional. But I wouldn't say that this tut is taking anything from the other just because of the color scheme. Besides, everybody learns from somebody. Who cares? As long as good design principles are passed on to the next person and credit is given where it's due (when applicable), then everything is cool.
Now, I've seen some straight jack-moves done by some G-T submitters. One guy took all the content from a W3Schools tut and wrapped his layout around it and called it his own with no mention at all of where he got the content from. I'm not sure if that's been deemed as an acceptable practice these days with so many people getting into submitting tuts, but if you're gonna steal content, please change a word or two, in the least... I mean, daggone.

good layout
