If you have any ideas for polls you'd like to see us run please post those ideas in this thread.

Poll ideas should contain the poll question (obviously), and a list of possible choices, max number of choices is 10. Since we're a BSD site, choices should be somehow related (even if only obscurely) to BSD.

Thanks a lot!.

I'm thinking a nice poll on window manager/desktop setups would be nice.

[elmore]

How about:

"Where I use BSD the most"

1. Server
2. Desktop
3. Firewall
4. Bridge
5. Web Server
6. Edge Router
7. All of the above
8. Other

How about favorite computer book? (fiction/non-fiction)
Favorite computer movie?

[Strog]

Taking off on Molo's post.

I think BSD should be ported to:

HAL (2001)
LCARS (Star Trek)
Orac (Blake's 7)
Andromeda (Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda)
Marvin (HHGTTG) (Brain the size of a planet should be able to build packages really fast)
etc.

Is there any question as to what the answer is here... its obviously "Hackers" and everyone knows this.

Most useful firewall rule.

[Amicus]

How about most recommended/trusted UPS brand/model for anywhere from 300VA - 2000VA :smile: (I'm researching the "best" rackmount UPS product for my home network)

[Strog]

I'm thinking about this for the next one:

How many computers are you using (i.e. not in the closet unless it's actually running in there)?

Maybe there should be an option with CowboyNeal in the closet with an abacus? :silly: Just kidding on that.


Keep the ideas coming. I'll try to keep the polls coming a little more frequently after I move and get settled a bit.
