Yes, the survey MAY shed some light on the subject - however, what's
the  betting that we get no more than 40 replies.



What's wrong with 40 replies? It may surprise you but a lot of professional market research uses samples that are not much bigger than that.
Sixty already just from my web form.

That is a real surprise but at least shows there is some impetus behind the QL at the moment...
I also mentioned on comp.sys.sinclair and told all those on my emailshot list.

Quite a few people I thought had long since retired from the QL scene are popping up. Frank Davis is a notable one. He is still quietly keeping his had in it seems.

The results will be very interesting - who is going to collate all the data to come up with the results?? I know that the details from non-Quanta members may not be sent to Quanta, but I do think this would be of interest to them - especially if they make any comments as to what they would like to see from Quanta (which may give incentive for them to join).
John Southern is getting all the results.

He said something to the effect that anything Quanta does is likely to benefit non-Quanta members too, so they should have some input.

I am going to create an Archive export file of the results and give to John. I have saved to disk in text form. so they will be easily processable.

John S - what are you doing with the paper input? It would be great to add to my database.

Tony
