Interesting survey. It would be also interesting to host a similar survey targeted towards other types of LDS professionals such as marketers, strategists, HCI designers, etc.
As Computer Scientists/Engineers, we often 'solve problems' without directly meeting or addressing 'user needs'. Many times, we would rather use a scripting or command line language than a GUI with help buttons and tutorials. We solve the problem, but neglect user preferences. We think that users *should* use something like Linux, when they prefer not to switch from something familiar like Windows. We see where they ought to be rather than realizing that they simply don't want to change.
