Huh? That screamed phishing, results to be sold to a spammer just to pay for his time to do the survey. TANSTAAFL principle. So when I could not proceed, I backed out and deleted the email. If not for that, and I hope the person doing the survey is reading this to see just how intrusive it was seen by one LCNC user with soon to be 4 machines running it, the count in the 'for LCNC' column would have been one higher. Or if counting machines, 3 higher with another under construction. How many of the members of this list had the same reaction?
