The poll question was based upon a suggestion from one
of the CCC members who thought it would be interesting for
people to predict which new generation of program might
wind up as the strongest.

If we compared Junior 5 with Fritz 5 (16 bit), then some
people would say that Junior 5 is brand new and Fritz 5
has been around for a while... that is not fair.

We pollsters can never win :-)))
That is why we have the abstain choice.

I suppose if everyone had the same opinion, we would not
need a poll in the first place.

Criticisms are always welcome. Pour it on; we can take it:-)
