So basically what this usless study is saying is that by polling 2000 supposedly random people, you can get the opinions of 15.4 million people? I don't think so. These numbers were inflated... I can do the same thing and keep the porportions accurate:

26,000,000 want the PS3
18,000,000 want the Wii
2,300,000 want the 360

Those numbers I gave above match the porportions they "guestimated" in that study, but why stop there? It's just like the exit polls in the last elections and why you can't believe any poll really. You can't get the opinion of the nation by only polling a couple thousand people. My guess is that the people conducting this study either didn't get the result they wanted or got a lot of useless data they had to inflate. Believe me, I deal with useless data every day in my line of work.
