put up details on what screen resolution is the most popular or how many
people run at what res ect....

Sure it's possible, but not yet a top priority. I'll take a
note of this, though.

Cheers,

Uwe

Or whether the driver is a left-foot braker, or a right-footer.

Well if you must know these things and god only know why. Most people run
1024X768 in 16 bit color. I don't have the exact numbers on hand, if you
really want to know ask nicely and give a good reason and I will get them
for you.

And whether or not they like to spend money on . . .

I can always see it coming :-)

resolution and brake preference plays into marketing though)

How about what kind of soft drink people prefer while playing GPL? And
whether they use their mouse with their left or right hand?

If you can see through my sarcasm, you will see that I simply don't
understand why screen resolution matters. Use the highest resolution
that your video card can handle at an acceptable framerate. Who cares
what everybody else does?

You know it would be interesting to see the force feed back to non
force feed back statistics on the list. Or controller preference in
general. I would think that this information might be worth something
to a certain segiment of the market, that is if it is valid!
