Simply, we know too much. We would not send our machine in for repair for a software problem, for example. A novice user would and it is a useful piece of information for CU if some ripoff company tries to make a novice user who does so pay for hardware repair. In other words, let experts evaluate the questionaires (hopefully they will do so to weed out such as us) and let consumers submit them.... Byron Howes
