I have sent it also to the users who I help as admin, they just use

For me the survey tone is set for an 'admin-user'. If Ubuntu is to
roll out to 200 million users in 4 years, I think there will be LOT
more non-admin end users out there.
great feedback, I will ask Mackenzie to add some extra options on the
install question for pre-installs and someone else installed it. Yes I
don't think we would send out this survey in its current form to
200,000,000 users!
Might be too late for my own flock. My wife started to do it under a 3
line whip and the first question from her (to me) was
'What Ubuntu do I use?'
(secret answer = Ubuntu)
I do not have a lot of hope for the other 8 surveys I forwarded, but
we will see.
Response from two friends who only use ubuntu on their laptops but are
very non techie
' the Ubuntu survey, I think it is a little beyond our scope Alan - it
seems a bit too technical for us'
So they were not confident enough to even attempt it, they have been
using only ubuntu for a couple of years and one had even gone into
John Lewes (Reading) asking for Ubuntu (another story).
I conclude that as Ubuntu rolls out to a wider user base, established
expectations, say, for surveys, may need to be completely revisited.
