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.
