I would tend to agree with Leif on this one. I mean they didn't even spell
IBM Informix right. Or is there really an IBM Informatix I don't know
about.
Also why are the stats downloadable from Ingres site and not Forrester? I
know they made it clear that Ingres did not pay for this review but when a
review leads to a site that is flashing in the title, it does make me a bit
suspicious of its influences regardless of what is said. Perhaps I'm just
being needlessly paranoid.
Thanks,
Regina
