If you read the article, the whole point was that they couldn't get Excel to do charts this nice. The Nodebox script they used is given, and it's a pretty nice bit of software to use.

Excel has a native bubble chart type. The rest is just manipulating the source data and chart formatting.

It will help if you explain HOW to do so :-) – Ivo Flipse Mar 4 '10 at 9:27
