How to lie with numbers

CNET has an article titled At Web sites, Windows outpaces Linux. This has got to be one of the worst bold-faced lies I’ve seen in a reputable news organization. Even looking at the numbers presented in the article itself they’re talking about how 0.06% of Linux sites migrated to Windows 2003 server. Would you call that type of migration “Outpacing”? They didn’t even mention how many sites switched from Windows to Linux in the same time period.
