I doubt it would be every town I think there is 1 Helicopter for the whole of Essex. I am not sure how much ground these things can cover at any one time but it could not be watching you all the time.

For my current course we had to do a small research project which was technology based, so I chose "Will Tablets replace Laptops" since it's kind of a choice I was going through before about which device would be suitable for what I needed. Anyway with tablets like the Microsoft surface and Asus Transformer I thought now would be a pretty good time to ask the question.

I don't need many results but I made a basic Google Docs survey, so then it can put the results into charts for me.

If any get a free minute its only 10 basic questions if you kind folks would help a brother out it would be appreciated, just about what devices you own or would consider buying in the future.

Done, q8 doesnt really make sense though. Answer 5 doesn't correspond with the question and it has a forced answer even though it shouldnt require one.

I have done it but I would like the option to answer Q3 for each as 90% of stuff at home I do on a tablet with only 10% needing a Laptop, but I would never try to do my work on one so my answer would have been Work = Laptop. Music video ect = Tablet :)

first of all thanks for any input I've had 10 responses in about 30 mins so far through various sources, and second of all I know some questions are either yes or no and might need an "other" choice etc; but I just wanted to keep it simple right now so I can leave it on its own to gather whilst I attempt some javascript.

Plus I was unsure of what questions to ask, atleast with question 6 "do you think tablets will replace laptops" should give me a result I can use either way with enough responses.


I just thought it was a pretty good idea as the survey was actually really easy to make and the results automatically in a chart is just great. With question 8 for example that was just to find out if people use ipads/surface/nexus devices, I'll go over it again later on I just needed responses and I could knock this out in one night and crack on with the rest.

Thanks again :D

Done. as said, Q8 doesn't make sense and also there are some spelling mistakes here and there. Good luck!

Ok I modified some questions, and added some extra options so people can actually the answer they want not just the closest one to what they can :p

17 reponses is great and I know atleast 5 have come from here so many thanks people, 1 guy on steam seemed interested enough he wants me to keep him in the loop on it haha.

Is question 8 really that bad that most of you flag it up :eek: I mean its a fair question isn't it "if you don't own either a laptop or a tablet is there a reason for this ?"

Question8.jpg


you can say I don't need need a portable device if you have a PC that does it all, or if you flat out don't need/want one.


I could probably take out some options and narrow it down a bit, also I know you had to pick an answer to continue if you didn't want to sorry about that. But I had to make all questions mandatory as I thought it the best way to get answers as people might skip and give me mixe d results but I suppose forcing the issue isn't haha.

But i own a laptop, a tablet and a desktop pc, so i couldn't tick a box. The question assumes you only own a pc, as you are asking 'If you don't own either a laptop or tablet is there a reason?'

but the 2nd to last option 'I feel the tablet or laptop I own does what I need it to' contradicts the question itself

or is it me?

oh no you are right but you need to answer to continue, so I wanted to cover all bases; I should probably re-work the answers on that one.

21 responses this evening and I can ask some others on the course to try it tomorrow, and I can do theres (if they bothered to do one). Was said 30 would be good enough to get a decent set of results, so thanks for the input and feedback.

Apologies, short attention span, plus i cba going back - i usually just read the latest posts. Bastid is a nice way of saying it though, isn't it. It's like calling a virgin a "sexually challenged person", innit? :D

quite interesting just looking at the summary charts with 23 responses, 70% say "no to tablets replacing laptops" ; but 91% "felt that the future technology would lean towards more portable devices."

Which is actually kind of close to my opinion since tablets like a Microsoft surface pro *could* replace a laptop just not with its current price and some other issue's like a lesser populated app store.
