Please help for my studies

Hi Everyone,
My name is Henry and I'm a Master of Computing student at Unitec New Zealand
(www.unitec.ac.nz). I'm currently doing my Thesis titled: "Newsgroup-based
Customer Support for Small and Start-up Independent Software Vendors". This
research is to find out whether or not Newsgroups are effective for
providing customer support with low cost.
This is **strictly** academic, non-profit research, only doing it to
complete my degree. You are encouraged to contact my institute (Unitec New
Zealand (www.unitec.ac.nz)) to verify my student details, if you ever have
any doubts.
For more information about my research, please visit my research page:
http://hyperdisc.unitec.ac.nz/postgrad/aungn01/surveysite/home.asp
I'm surveying the customers of software companies who use newsgroups to get
solution to their problems. I'm surveying 50 customers per company. However,
since there is a large number of newsgroups available at Corel newsgroup
site, I'm only surveying 2 people from this particular newsgroup.
The survey is only 12 questions so it shouldn't take more than 5 mins or so.
And this survey is **totally anonymous**.
NOTE: I would like 2 people with at least 1 year experience (Getting
solutions for their problems) using newsgroups, to answer my survey.
To participate in the survey...

If you want to know what questions are being asked, you can view the
questions beforehand by entering "Guest-User" (without quotes) in the User
Code field and browse around the survey pages. After you 've satisfied with
the questions being asked, you can use one of the User Codes provided above
and answer the survey.
Thank you all for taking the time to read this post. If any 2 of you can
answer my survey, it'll help towards completing my research and I'll be very
much appreciated!

Henry,
Perhaps your premise is wrong for these groups. Corel would not be
described as a "Small and Start-up Independent Software Vendors"

In addition, that "sample" is entirely too small. It may make data easier
to crunch when small numbers are used, but the validity is lost.
