Bear in mind, if we both are concerned with "facts", we'd both have read the report.. And surely we've both have noted the following direct statement from Forrester, September 1, 2004, ".NET Versus J2EE: .NET Has Clearly Arrived", by Randy Heffner: "For results based on a randomly chosen sample of this size (n=322), there is 95% confidence that the results have a statistical precision of plus or minus 5.5% of what they would be if the entire population of North American enterprises had been polled. Thus, there is 95% confidence that the true proportion of firms that use .NET for the majority of their development is between 51% and 62%."
