Survey of Andrew Users

JUMP TO

Dear Andrew Users:

It's time for the Survey of Andrew Users. Look at the list of goodies you got just by asking for them in previous surveys:

Conversion to C++ (Andrew7)
Binary distribution packages (plus continual updates)
Sun Solaris port (one of our most popular)
Linux port (for our fastest growing user segment)
HTML support (editor available)
Internet interaction (homepage and progress on web browser)

Help the Andrew Consortium identify new goals. A compilation of your responses will be presented to our members at the Andrew Technical Conference. You will receive a copy, too.

Complete confidentiality will be maintained. Names of individuals and organizations will not be attributed to any comments.

Answer as much (or as little) of the survey as you like. To save you time, we have created this web form. You are at:
