Great idea! This information is really valuable... I would think that the
FTC would want their own people to generate stats they can use in a legal
proceeding... this mini-study could spark a more in-depth involvement on
their part.
They had done a little study of their own to use in the hearing with M$ with
only a handful of vendors and I believe the callers identified themselves (I
could be wrong there). The results were not as strong. Something very much
like this IS exactly one of the first things the FTC did in measuring the
hold M$ had on the market.
What can I do to help?

I'm not sure, but I was thinking of just passing the link on along to the
elected officials who represent this area, so they could evaluate the
situation for themselves.........
