IT Vendors

I'm not a computer software or hardware vendor, my
job doesn't ride on one product over another (ie Win32
vs. OS/2 vs. Unix). I'm a computer consultant, now
while I will make recommendations about an
Installation (that's what consultants do) and I do a lot
of Win32 installs, I still prefer to use OS/2, and I get
a few people to understand my reason to do so. I get
paid either way...... Yet, I was excluded because I
gave up my free subscription, because I didn't want to
waste paper and I could get it on-line..... I was
excluded. I would like to know how you think you have
a valid random sample when you are polling or
sampling less the 1% of the population????


Gee since you are a consultant... (Alan Laing) Today
