  • Subject: Midrange expertise on non-midrange stuff

There are times when I want to ask a question or questions on an IT
topic that is not strictly a midrange topic, but I want midrange
professionals opinions on the matter.  Where can I ask such questions
and not be off-topic?

Let me give you an example.  For years, we have used Sidekick 98 as a
PIM (Personal Information Manager) for everyone.  For various reasons it
is no longer satisfactory.  I am interested in a single piece of PC
software that would 1) be a PIM (including to do lists, calendar,
contacts, etc), 2) be a CRM, 3) handle email and newsgroups, and 4) the
average 6th grader could learn and use.

If I ask on some PC forum, I will get what the world thinks about the
situation.  I don't want the world's opinion, I want the opinion of
midrange professionals because I know how they think.  What is
acceptable to the world is not necessarily acceptable to we midrangers. 
We have a different standard.  Am I making sense?  Where can I ask this
kind of stuff?

Thanks.
