More Radicati FUD Requoted on ZDNet.com

For an unknown reason, I seemed to have a large number of referrals from ZDNet today. I wondered why. Well it seems that buried in the ZDNet story, "IBM's Mills touts managed clients" , which Ed Brill blogged about today, was the statistically invalid Radicati survey of Lotus Customers. I do not know who ka9taw is, but thank you for pointing the author (Christopher Jablonski) and readers of that article to "Lies, Damn Lies, and Radica...oops I Mean Statistics." There is no excuse for journalists, especially those who rely on analyst reports to exercise due diligence.
