It is not a suitable question. It isn't about a specific programming issue. It is a shopping question and as such not suitable for Stack Overflow. –  Oded Apr 8 '13 at 8:57

It is not suitable for anywhere here. Q&A sites need questions with Answers. There is no correct Answer to your question. You want a Question and Discussion site, or Question and Polling site instead (Whatever they are). –  JonW Apr 8 '13 at 9:04

There is possibly no single correct answer. That is, you would end up with a list of answers, one not more correct than the other. That's simply not what we do. –  Bart Apr 8 '13 at 9:10
