Usability Research for the NorthWest

Microsoft User Research has a Usability study coming up specifically targeted to people who are into cars and racing, both real and virtual. Here are the details of the study:

We are looking for individuals who love racing games, cars, and racing in general. If they play racing video games and care about the details of what goes on or in their car then they are exactly the person we need for this study.

A few requirements to participate
· Licensed driver that can drive to the Microsoft Redmond Campus
· Available May 8th
· 27-43 years of age
· Car Nut/Gear Head/Racing Enthusiast
· No Microsoft employees or contractors
· US Citizens

Each participant will receive a free gift selection from a list of some of Microsoft's most popular hardware and software titles. There are limited seats in this study. If you know of someone who would be interested and meets the criteria listed above, have them email uccoord@microsoft.com with a subject of ‘Racing Study’ and include a daytime phone number for immediate consideration.

Note these person(s) needs to be local to the northwest and don't PM me cause I can't get you into this .

Good luck!

Edit: Bug in the forum software...this is why you leave coding to the professionals sometimes .

I guess they want a mature group of people with that age group.
