Absolutely. From TFA:

> ...according to a survey conducted by Spiceworks...
I know all about Spiceworks; hell, I've used it the last two places I've worked. They are not to be trusted as a source for anything except echo chamber noise when it comes to surveys.

Nonetheless, even paid shills like Spiceworks get plenty of airplay. Microsoft has deep pockets for tech whores who write what they want to see.

I'm not sure this is worth a ping to the Windows List, since it's of highly dubious factual content (despite tons of bogus statistics). But I do appreciate the ping, if for no other reason than the humor aspect. :-)

You see the flack that Tacticalogic is giving me on this? i know about the lies that can be done with such statistics . . . and the total lack of logic. Under 15% general adoption but 60% by business? Where??? He is so absolutely sure of the facts given in the article. Totally lacking in healthy skepticism and convinced of his correctness.
