26% is fairly significant, but that's not what the guy was asking, so why did you feel the need to point that out? He asked if his PC purchase counted. I told him yes.

Honestly, none of this really matters since most of the study is behind a pay wall. The most important question is how many people constitute each population (manstream, performance, enthusiast). I'm sure the full study has at least an estimate for each group, but unless someone is willing to pay $7,500-$25,000 for the report and share it, we'll never know.

And I said it counts very little, seeing as that the performance/enthusiast sales still beat out the console hardware figures. I was informing him that while it counts, it's still relatively small compared to the performance/enthusiast sales.

Whether you think it counts very little or astronomically is besides the point. The point was whether his PC purchase counted toward the study figures. It does. That's the only answer he was looking for. Why is this so difficult for you?

And if you were trying to convey that information to him, why didn't you quote his original post instead of my post that answered his question?

You seem to think that I'm attacking what you said, which I'm not. I was just pointing out that the mainstream sales were just a small part of the overall sales. I was building on what you said by adding more clarification.

I don't think you're attacking me at all, I think you're being defensive. You started off your first sentence with, "Once again..." as if you were getting tired of explaining the study to people. I was merely answering the other poster's specific question about his PC, yet you immediately assumed that we missed the point of the study and felt the need to correct us for some reason.  If you wanted to elaborate on my answer, you could've started your sentence with, "To elaborate..." or "To add some context...". My reply would then have been, "Yep."
