sgtevmckay:
It is entirely possible.
Again I mention that I did say there may be some bias.

in fairness,
something I neglected to point out:
in the above results, question #3 "answers" go from 3.9 (best) to 2.7. Similarly for question #7 - from 4.1 to 2.6. (I think that's out of 5 but it doesnt say)

So down the list doesn't mean no interest ...

 I use FARR, but not many of its features at all - mostly just for program launching. I've read the Help pages over and over but mostly I don't get it. -J-Mac (March 30, 2009, 02:59 AM)

would it be safe to say that if I've never heard of FARR I don't need it?
(eg, if you have to ask the price you can't afford it)

sorry--just (belatedly) took the survey and am feeling a bit giddy. I needed some release after the brain workout.  :stars:

Not safe to say at all!  I use it for its program launching abilities. I believe that is what it started out as - a program launcher primarily. Though its search abilities have been greatly extended via plugins written by bith mouser and a host of other gifted members here. I understand you can use FARR to search either on your computer or just about anywhere else.

However I've never gotten very good at using it for anything more than a program launcher - and an excellent one at that. I just press the Pause/Break key as a hotkey and start typing the first few letters of the program I want to open and FARR immediately finds it. Very quick and easy program launching from your keyboard.

90% male. Wow.

I cannot remember what I wrote in the 'appendices' section.. I might not have done at all. Sorry. :(

But otherwise, interesting results.
