So with your, ahem, "graduate" degree, you really spent all those
years in training to be a sales floor jerk at one of their retail
stores? Or maybe you're aiming higher and want to be their purchasing
agent.

Well, I am studying usability and evaluating Fry's website is one of
the projects in one of the classes (cause Fry's website is pretty bad)
And one of the evaluation methods of a product is to ask real users
what they think about it.
I figured out that people on this newsgroup might be familiar with the
website, so...

I find it very hard to believe that this could be a graduate level
project, let alone a freshman community college level project.

It's more on the level of high school freshman or sophmore to be honest.

Actually, I can easily see how something like this can be turned into a
high-level research project. I think it is pretty narrow minded for the
people who replied to (read attacked) this post after a full explanation of
the project was given to be so arrogant. Of course, I guess you all are top
research scientists that have published many papers in top conferences and
journals, not losers who don't have research based degrees who find the need
to declare what valuable research is.

The survey can easily be part of a business management couse or a
business/computer ethics class; e.g.

Mgmt: more people are using an online website for purchases, so
Frys should also have a website with prices.
worker: installed website

Mgmt: make sure the prices are lower than the website about $10-$40
lower AND tell store customers that there is NO RELATIONSHIP
between the website & the local Fry's store.
This will "explain" & account for the higher prices at the store.

worker: do we tell the customer that the rebates shown on the website
is only for online purchase & don't apply to the store purchase?

Mgmt: Of course. & it isn't "bait & switch" since there is NO CONNECTION
between the website & the local store.

I agree with Matthew. I don't know if it's spam or not but take it easy on
the guy. I have my psych degree and have been involved in some graduate
level and higher research environments and this sort of thing is just what a
usability expert would be looking at. Heck, I had a psych professor (PhD,
highly respected expert on eldery population, lots of published papers) who
is working on a contract with the state transportation department to look at
the readability of the current road signs.

So it is kind of narrow minded to assume the worst and suggest that this is
just some sort of useless high school project.

Haven't you guys heard? They lowered the standards...........
