If I was an AV vendor I would make sure I am #1 also.I dont trust anybody but myself.You can debate this all you want but in the end these claims,whether 100% true or not,are aimed towards the novice home user.The average home computer user.Those who look at a testing result with the nice graphs from an independent(is it just me or does anyone else think they dont test out of the goodness of their heart) AV testing lab and buy it based on that and that alone.The home user that doesnt have the time or knowledge to research the products to get a truly impartial comparison between products.Before you read into that I am not specifically talking about Panda.The home user that takes everything they read on a website at face value.
If im buying a car and Ford says they make the best car in America and back that up with some independent automotive test results,am I going to run to the nearest Ford dealer and buy a car based on that? Im thinking No! I am going to look around and test drive different makes and models until I find the one that is best for me based on performance,gas mileage & options.
Somebody might not agree with the car I bought and say Ford is the best because they got the highest rating in the independent automotive test.I might say I bought a Chevy because it was best for me and the debate might continue.
However a debate is one thing and forcing your opinion on somebody is another.If you cannot understand this then you shouldn't get involved in the debate
