Gaming console ownership in U.S. rises sharply

Can't really understand these number... kinda like nothing is really making any sense on that report.
Could anyone else put some graphics to help us out see what it is that it really means?

well........ the number of U.S. households with both a TV aand least one gaming console rose by 18% over a two year period and there are some extra figures on the amount of console use by age group. It doesn't seem all that difficult to me anyways, but then again, i did read source article before i wrote it so that doesn't matter lol

Perhaps the homes having televisions increased only 1.6% because nearly everyone has a television. Even in college my roommates and I owned a television for our consoles. Most of our program viewing came from computers and downloaded content. A 17" monitor WAS good enough for a small room showing. The only complaint of that method was that you were sitting in somebody's room and most likely the couch was full, the bean bag chair was called, the dining chair for overflow was occupied and finally the floor was the only option.

Id really like to know how they get these number of theirs. Its not like they went into everyones house and asked how old you are, do you have a tv, do you have a gaming console. Even if they polled 10,000 people, any given day those 10,000 will give you different numbers depending on where the poll is taken, what time, what was the weather etc. So my point is these "statistics" are irrelevant.
