Both companies have been extremely cautious when publishing those numbers so I have my doubts about such B&N report.
Just in computer books, Amazon beats B&N by far, barely followed by O'Reilly but with higher prices, twice or even triple the price per ebook.

Actually it was from a chart posted here on MR. Just look for the thread about a comparison chart of e-readers. I guess it really doesn't matter. B&N has all the books I've looked for so far so that's good enough for me.
I'd be more surprised if you DIDN'T doubt something B&N says.
Of all the people I know IRL who use Nooks, Kindles, Kobo's etc, they use them to read novels. I'm in I.T. as well and I have to wonder how big the segment of users is who would read technical manuals/computer books on their e-ink device. I know I wouldn't but it is a curiosity.
