I have recently wondered what hardware/software folks use to access this Forum (and others). I would appreciate it if you would indicate which of the following you use:

1. Desktop/Laptop PC
2. Tablet
3. Smartphone (Texting)
4. Smartphone (Voice to Text)
5. Telegram
6. Other (please list)

Thank you for your responses.

FWIW, I'm Number 1 only.

Well... to get the answers they desire, pollsters typically phrase their questions in a fashion that will "assist" those being questioned with their responses.

If the question was "Would you use your smart phone or tablet to access the forum if the forum software was better suited to those devices?" what would the answers be?

Mine would still be no because Sprint sucks if you're not within viewing distance of a Sprint cell tower, but after I finally wise up and switch to T-Mobile, heck yeah I'd use my phone. It would be awesome to be able to upload a pic without all of the hoop jumping.

Was I close?
