Appreciate the effort you are putting into this, BUT all of these
surveys have ALREADY BEEN DONE by national magazines like
PC Magazine and Comp. Shopper. 
	These generally have a much larger survery base and are carried
out quite objectively.Just pick up their appropriate issue,
and check out all the stats. If you get permission from them (which
I doubt) upload that info directly to your web site.
