Dell Survey is here

Chris -
You're not going to believe this one.
On Dell's survey, the radio buttons are screwed up for Questions 2 and 3.
You can only select one button ACROSS THE TWO QUESTIONS! So, if question 2
you say you most prefer the Athlon, and question 3 you say you least prefer
the Pentium 4, and you answer in that order, than only Pentium 4 will be
registered in the question. Moreover:
That's question 2:
"If you were purchasing a new personal computer for your household today,
which one of the following processors would you MOST prefer and why? (Please
select one)"
And this is Question 3:
"If you were purchasing a new personal computer for your household today,
which one of the following processors would you LEAST prefer and why?
(Please select one)"
Note my browser, IE5, will only give you one radio button for each NAME
attribute. Since both most and least have the same NAME="most_prefer",
despite one question being most and one least, that only the second one will
be recorded in the system!!!
Moreover, look at the 11-point divvy:
Again, both boxes have the same NAME, so only one is being sent, and THERE
IS NO W3C STANDARD WAY TO DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN THE TWO IN THIS FORM, IT IS
CONSIDERED MALFORMED. THE BROWSER CAN SEND WHATEVER IT WANTS, OR BOTH, IN
ANY ORDER.
