I am very familiar with the Tolly group. The company I work for has used them
before. I've also seen and heard the gospel from the disciples of them. Don't
get me wrong, I'm not knocking their capabilities. The problem is when folks
take what they say as the gospel and don't factor other tings into the equation
beyond simple technical comparison tests. Statistics can be made to look any
way you want, depending upon who's doing the test. Having been burned with
this before I tend to be more gun shy and less fanatical nowdays.
