I don't care for the way several questions are posed. Examples:
"4. What would you consider is a reasonable price to pay for a
computer graphics workstation designed with crystallography in mind?
A) USD $2000-3000
B) USD $3000-5000
C) USD $5000+
"
What, no option for "I'd be willing to assemble one from parts for under
USD $2000"?
...
"If there were a choice, would you prefer stereo graphics displayed
using LCD-shuttered glasses or a head mounted display (often referred to
as a Virtual Reality headset)?"
That does not cover all the choices currently available, let alone what
I wish were available.
