Don't forget to take into account WHERE your respondants live when they post
the large salaries.  1 Indiana dollar /= 1 NYC dollar!  For an idea of this,
go to http://www2.homefair.com/calc/salcalc.html and pick a couple cities
and see the difference.

Thanks. We've looked over the EETimes survey before. It lacks some of
the granularity we'd like. But it is, as you say, better than nothing.
The problem we have is wanting to filter out the hardware design
positions, etc. and look at just software. Everybody says "Software is
booming" but its hard to tell from such lumped together data.
