This question is not a good fit to our Q&A format. We expect answers to generally involve facts, references, or specific expertise; this question will likely solicit opinion, debate, arguments, polling, or extended discussion.

I'm boggled as to why this is at the bottom. Isn't teaching the main purpose of the machine? – Inaimathi Mar 4 '12 at 13:57
I feel like this is (arguably) a little too subjective. There are so many possibilities that it I would think it hard to accept one answer. I'm neither voting up nor down on this question. – Gaffi Mar 16 '12 at 19:25
Its also at the bottom as there is a bit of a positive-feedback effect on the questions near the top of the page - they attract voted because they are near the top. I added some of those and being a techie they glossed over this side of the product (sorry). I hope people start to read and vote for these lower questions as we have to reach 40 with a score of 10 to proceed. – iandotkelly Mar 26 '12 at 19:41
This is more of a conversation starter for a discussion forum than a Stack Exchange-style question to solve a specific problem. This would not make a good fit on an SE site. – Robert Cartaino♦ Apr 4 '12 at 13:24

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form.
