Mark, I obtained your email address from the ALUG website.

I work for NOP Research (National Opinion Polls).

We are seeking, through computer user groups, to hold short meetings with people aged 20 to 49 who have purchased a new (or as new)laptop computer since January 2001.

The purpose is to find out what 'private' (as opposed to corporate) purchasers of Laptops are seeking and whether their purchase met their needs.

I can arrange to visit at any reasonable time and location between the 6th and 18th August to attend these 'one to one' meetings. We are also offering a £5 Marks and Spencers voucher as a small 'reward' for any of your members willing to participate.

If you could pass this request on to your mailing group, I would be most grateful.

I can be reached via email at don_spillman@hotmail.com or on one of the two phone numbers below.

Thanks and Regards, Don Spillman NOP Research 01787 461053 07802 721 565
