We went down to the pub this lunchtime and there were a bunch of them there (they were doing a £5-towards-your-lunch-if-you-chat-to-us thing, too). We had a bit of a chat, but none of our company are really .NET/SQL types and their demographic also seems to be way young. That said, I know a few people at RedGate and they're all very happy, and people who use their tools seem to like them too. Sure, it's a bit of a stunt but, as the guy we spoke to said, it's cheaper to hand out free iPads to a bunch of people (who pass your screener) than it is to pay a recruitment company, and it builds goodwill (amongst the kinds of people who are swayed by a free iPad, anyway).
