How to lie with statistics

The poll was not restricted to print-only readers. A majority of the respondents read InfoWorld both in print and on Electric so Electric readers weren't excluded.

Yes, and the majority of the respondents also read TV Guide, therefore TV Guide readers have voted NT Workstation as the Readers' Choice client.

Bad logic might work with the general public, but I don't recommend trying it with IT professionals.
