What do you people think of the results of the VeriTest Reports: http://www.veritest.com/clients/reports/microsoft/[^]
I treat all comparative reports with a large amount of distrust, especially when paid for by the companies that produce the products being tested. While there is not likely to be any falsifying of results, you can be sure that the environment, including the tests themselves will have been skewed to present the correct product as the "winner".

And really speaking I dont like my favourite Linux systems being ranked below those I don't really love and admire ;)

On the VeriTest website on the age about which reports get posted it says "The reports we've posted on our Web site, however, represent only a small fraction of the tests we've performed and the test reports we've written—the fraction that our clients have chosen to publish. Each client determines, for each test, whether to have us post its test report." I would be interested in seeing some of the comparisons Microsoft chose not to make public.
