A poll for both users and non-users would make sense IMHO. It should include reasons for both groups though, i.e. like this: I use kqemu because: [ ] old hardware [ ] *BSD host .... I don't use kqemu because: [ ] using kvm instead [ ] using virtualbox instead [ ] doesn't work stable for me ... cheers, Gerd
