TechTarget Mainframe Survey

2009-07-23 Thread Ian
Techtarget is running a survey on Mainframe usage etc.
The first 2 or 3 pages is boring stuff but it is worth it to get to the real
mainframe questions.

Link = http://go.techtarget.com/r/8764676/1317583

I'm posting it here to make sure they get the right audience for the survey.

quote
The Mainframe Computer - a high-performance computer used for
large-scale computing purposes that require greater availability and
security than a smaller-scale machines - is a paradigm in today's
data center.  Whether you love or hate it, your mainframe controls
your server world.

In this survey, TechTarget wants to know how you split distribution
of your network between mainframe, windows and cloud, as well the
impact the mainframe has on your distributed applications.

Conditions found here. In other words, here's some fun lawyer speak

It appears to be a survey from CA since at the end it asks if you want CA
to send you the survey results.

I said 'yes', and supplied my email address. After which it promptly told
me I wasn't the demographic they were looking for and thank you for

Just what is the 'proper demographic'.

Why don't they just say:
