You would have to ask the article writer to be sure what they meant - but my impression is that there are people who may want to utilize this hardware device on a plain PC - nothing to do with Apple in any way other than, say, this device. For example, they have a Dell Precision Workstation running Windows 7 Ultimate Edition x64 and they have purchased the 'Apple Magic Trackpad' and desire to connect it to their Dell Precision Workstation running Windows 7 Ultimate Edition x64 when there is not a single Apple computer in-sight.

Now - you could also infer that instead of worrying over all the bootcamp specific stuff, you just utilize your Windows 7 installation with the steps given (ignoring the fact this is a BootCamp thing on your Macintosh) and get the device installed in Windows 7 - treating Windows 7 like the other operating system it truly is.
However, in the end, it is like any other hardware device. If the hardware manufacturer supports the devices use on a given operating system and provides the proper drivers and software to do so - you are golden (you can do it.) If the hardware manufacturer does not support the devices on a given operating system and thus does not provide the proper drivers and software to do so - you are out of luck (likely cannot do it - unless some enterprising individual/company makes it happen for you.)
As for Bootcamp, it's a different word for multi-booting even if also virtualize and run your Windows 7 inside OS X as well as actually booting to your Windows 7 partition. What this means is that for all intents and purposes - when you boot to Windows 7 on your Apple computer, treat it like you would a non-Apple PC with Windows 7 installed - because that *is* what it is. ;-)
