Click to See Complete Forum and Search --> : Demographics of RMAs nparker13 12-18-2003, 06:31 PM I decided to post this poll up after reading a post from SoSa about the demographics of the iQue...if you want, post a more detailed location or a new poll for USA/Europe detailed. -nate PS i dont even know if garmin sells in some of those areas, but i just took the zones from a google image. Moose Man 12-18-2003, 09:46 PM I have a theory as to the results as of this moment, the majority of the RMAs are in the East Coast. Therefore, I believe that the need to RMA is definitely relational to the distance from home base manufacturing (ie Taiwan). :D :D funbob 12-18-2003, 10:22 PM Love the sig Moose :D Moose Man 12-18-2003, 11:13 PM Originally posted by funbob Love the sig Moose :D As with many of my sig's - they are not original and with one so not PC, I will devulge it's author, posthumously at the appropriate time that it evokes more questions.

Moose Man 12-19-2003, 01:00 AM Way to go CC - jes it was Will Rogers credit will now be issued. :D For a moment - I was googling on Cowbot and couldn't find anything except some obscure Asian cartoon caricatures..... Curious Cat 12-19-2003, 05:48 AM “Cowbot” from an obscure language of the Anamie people that means Moose like animal. OK, OK actually it is the result of late night typing in the dark. Let me know where I can pick up my prize. How about a new Mercedes in silver to match my iQue?:D Moose Man 12-19-2003, 09:04 AM Originally posted by Curious Cat “Cowbot” from an obscure language of the Anamie people that means Moose like animal.

How about a new Mercedes in silver to match my iQue?:D I'd take a BMW 740iL over the Merecedes any day. I haven't checked, if I won the California lottery on Wednesday night...you got a deal otherwise you'll have to settle for a free post. :D nparker13 12-19-2003, 03:17 PM Not to be nitpicky but the new 7's have the Li suffix...honestly id rather have the older one, which is an iL, but just thought i should mention....nice choice with the Bimmer over the Mercedes though :p -nate Moose Man 12-19-2003, 11:58 PM Originally posted by nparker13 Not to be nitpicky but the new 7's have the Li suffix...honestly id rather have the older one, which is an iL, but just thought i should mention....nice choice with the Bimmer over the Mercedes though :p -nate Hence the reason I mentioned the "iL". I'd take a 2 or 3 year old Bimmer over a dressed up Chrysler anyday. :D vectorman 12-21-2003, 03:00 AM This poll leaves out Alaska and Hawaii timezone. I am therefore unable to proxy vote for 2 guys in my office. Moose Man 12-21-2003, 08:35 AM Originally posted by vectorman This poll leaves out Alaska and Hawaii timezone. I am therefore unable to proxy vote for 2 guys in my office. Yes it does and what if I'm in Hawaii and my Que goes out next month.....how will I be able to vote correctly. Will I have the strength to knock out the hanging chad? :D CaptainSpalding 12-21-2003, 10:46 AM You have to know how many units were sold in each area for the RMA statistics to be meaningful. Maybe more units were RMA'd on the east coast because there were more sold there. Or maybe this message board just happens to be more popular with people on the east coast than elsewhere. Many factors could skew the stats . . . :D Curious Cat 12-21-2003, 07:46 PM Originally posted by CaptainSpalding You have to know how many units were sold in each area for the RMA statistics to be meaningful.

Moose Man 12-22-2003, 03:59 PM You mean to tell me that someone starts a poll and the results are not statistically correct? What your saying in essence is: that this forum doesn't represent a statiscally accurate sampling of the number of Que user's and there various locations? If that's the case, then life has no meaning. Does any one have a spare topo map they can lend me, I promise to give it back, so I can go find myself a cliff to jump off. :D nparker13 12-22-2003, 04:09 PM Lol, although we could start a poll finding out where everyone is from, so that we can divide the rma by the total to get the % rmad for area. It would provide a more accurate solution. -nate PDA Street
