4th ANNUAL FRAME SHOP TECHNOLOGY POLL & DISCUSSION - NOVEMBER 2006

A survey that compares how we've applied technology such as matcutters/cmcs, pricing/POS systems, visualization, internet access, websites, etc A brief comparison of backup procedures and computer security.

This month's poll is being conducted with different software, since our new polling software only allows a single question. Most future polls will be single questions.

SURVEY CLOSED. SEE RESULTS BELOW

Your input and comments are greatly appreciated!

If you're buying, sure! :)

Future polls will probably be a single question, due to the nature of our new polling software. The only exception is the yearly tech poll. Then again, I may break that down into a CMC poll, a POS poll, a Security Poll, etc in the future too.
Thanks for the feedback and I look forward to that icy cold beverage in Vegas!
