I've been pretty happy with it. The Pro version, while a little more
expensive has 6000+ packages on a DVD and 7 CDs, which makes installs
easy. Plus you won't spend as much time downloading source from the
web. The down side, I'm having some trouble tracking down their
development packages for things I want to try out which are newer than
the most recent distro. Plus, they don't make the newest distro
avaialable immediately on the web, so you'll need to buy it or wait a
while when they release the next version.
