You're right though, that report can be taken in a number of ways. If you look at the count for Be against VM in terms of speed for Jan 2010, one of the things I noticed is that whilst Be scored 75% against VM's 59%, Be's sample was based on 502 ratings, however VM's was based on 3092 ratings. Had the sample size been near equal we may have had a better comparison overall.

As you say though, our own opinions of the service we get is more important than raw data.

It would also be interesting and informative to see what percentage of the customer base those rating numbers represent. VM have a much larger customer base than Be.
