Sent mine. Youre welcome.

Jepp, same here.

...and away

Hey, thanks very much to all that have contributed so far- it's much appreciated! I'll put the results up here in the next day or two.

Also, it is of practical use- we may get a better understanding of current Amiga/Morphos users and the market. Some of these questions I think have been done before in polls, but the demographics ones (age, income etc) haven't AFAIK.

PS: I forgot to put in the privacy policy- it is:

All data gathered is only for anonymous collation into percentages for each question. This data will not be linked in anyway to people's names, and all emails will be deleted as soon as the data is collated (which will be no later than a week from now).

-Thanks
.

If I were doing a survey, I would be asking if they were to use a Pegasos based system, would it be for business or home use. And also developer or 'end user' point of view.

Good luck Ants, and I'll make the topic "sticky" for a while. Obviously, I cannot take part in the poll, less it be skewed.

@all

Ants approached me about this, and he is really doing it for some coarse-work. We are lucky that he will be willing to share his data with all of us

Ahh yes, good ideas- I'll see if I have time to put them in today!

It would be nice to see the results when its complete. Will you be polling non Pegasos users from other sites as well? I think more then one A1 user has a few hidden dreams of a Pegasos.

Yep, sorry for the delay- went away for a couple of days- which put me behind!
Just putting the results together- hopefully be up tomorrow.

Ok, first results are up- under `MorphOS Market Research' in the Bar- enjoy!

The LINK!!

Very interesting. Browser used most, but is "in most need of an update." Kind of funny in a way.
