The time POV-Ray used percentages are interesting.
Also the very few females, though the ages of them appear to vary much.
I guess I missed entering some of these stats, can't remember if I
submitted something just once or a second time too; probably been a
couple months ago in any case.
And gee, what a bunch of Windows users we are. Wasn't DOS a viable
answer?
Windows 3.1?? I feel sorry for you 2, whom-ever you are. j/k!
I used Win3.1 quite prolificly myself once upon a time. That's how I got
to know DOS better :)
In a way the stats seem pretty well rounded out to me.
