Product Overview Survey - Page 4

The_YongGrand · 26th Dec 2005, 10:37 AM

Oh, the product overview must be important if you want to specifically buy something.

I checked the overview in the Net, before ever buying the product. The specs... the technical stuff.

The better thing to check the specs and the overview is the MANUAL BOOK. I always download the product's MANUAL BOOK also before attempting to buy it.

Then why are you starting another poll when you know the results is going to be inconclusive?

Adrian Wong · 26th Dec 2005, 04:06 PM

The results are not conclusive AT THIS MOMENT due to the number of participants. Which is why I set the new poll to be sticky. Let the number of participants accumulate and then we will have statistically-significant results.

Will possibly add these questions to the next Survey Contest too.

One more thing about the product overview without review. I feel that it should not be listed under 'Reviews' in the article database

But it's virtually impossible to hit the figure required.

Yeah, that's what I thought too

Hmm.. A separate category?

Yeah, I think perhaps it should. After all, if anything, it's just another form of a press release?

But let's see if it's even worth taking the effort to create them.

Nothing is impossible.

We will be able to derive statistically significant numbers. Don't worry. I will get it done.
