Gregory, a lot more goes into a buying decision than the results these charts show. Reliability and simplicity are not reflected in these charts or article. NTAP wins these measures hands down. Capacity is another factor. NTAP Cache appliances can be networked easily into huge, logical farms.

Note:
" Network Appliance's average response time of 1.66 seconds is somewhat misleading. The test logs show that this cache maintained close-to-ideal response time for the first two hours of the test, but during the last two hours response time gradually climbed to 2.1 seconds. The vendor attributes this to a decline in memory hit ratio (the percentage of hits served from a proxy's RAM cache instead of its disk subsystem.). In the last 30 minutes of its test run, the hit ratio for the Network Appliance cache also fell to 50 percent. "

Question to anyone: What product was Dell showing here?
