Seeing this inaccurate news repeated in KD Nuggets, which is read by thousands of data miners, doesn't help our mood. Of the six companies cited, SAS Institute is clearly in the most desirable top right corner of the Magic Quadrant chart for both "Completeness of Vision" and "Ability to Execute." Please check out the report for yourself, if you haven't already: http://www.gartnerweb.com/public/axl/reprints/sas/00082107.html I wanted to bring this to your attention in hopes there's something you can do to set the record straight.
