Why on earth was this question cited moved? It could have been closed as vague, edited, or voted down. But who on earth would thing it appropriate for SuperUser.com?

Agree with Kyle's comment on the NO side .. I like discussions around criteria and considerations and don't want to see bunches of "xyz is great!" nonsense.
