the author(s) of the report, <a class="user" href="http://www.computerworld.com.au/index.php/id;1360562568;fp;16;fpid;0">http://www.computerworld.com.au/index.php/id;1360562568;fp;16;fpid;0</a>Technically, the phrase like "Banks worldwide" is true. However, they're trying to make it sound like a tsunami of migrations to Windows, when it's just some of the customers of a single IT services firm moving some of their peripheral operations to windows.
