And can also lead to interesting "results".

Say that 50% of the D&D gamers have switched/tried 4e. With an estimated player base of 4 million (from another reputable source, Wikipedia ), that means that 2 million people are now playing D&D4e.

Let's say that my anecdotal evidence of 75% of players owning the PH stands true, which would mean that WotC has sold 1 500 000 Player's Handbooks.

Quite a lot of books, IMO.
