Some people sign up for Nielsen/NetRatings which lets the company track every site they visit. So if the company has their stats, they know if they are male or female.
I'm part of Nielson Homescan panel. Everything I buy with a bar code I scan and transmit to them weekly. But I declined to joing their Internet tracking devision. Don't want my boobie surfing come back to haunt me in. He he.

maybe Nielsen should start tracking demographical info on boobie surfing? Then I would actually care what Nielsen has to say.

Dell is losing.
They should just sell it off and give the money back to the shareholders.
