- nice work and big effort. As usual, it easier to be an
"arm-chair-quarterback." So, heres my pass, go deep! Is there any
correlation between the "too expensive to be competitive," and "I fly
IMAC". Or, does "too expensive to be competitive" correlate to the
person not flying IMAC either?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2>That will be the NEXT survey.....stay tuned....about 125
opinions thus far, with a pretty significant distribution on "no
interest/support" and "too expensive to be competitive", in that
order...interesting notes, too.</FONT></DIV>
