IMO opinion, we've had a much more stable product here, at beta 1, than current VB 4.1.1 is. Granted, XF doesn't have all the features yet, in my mind, that's a good thing. They're focusing on what's important, the forum, if they decide to go with a CMS/Blog, I expect that they'll have a smart, integrated solution that's not going to be half assed, or put together without any type of research or solicitation from the owners. Another thing I think is worth the money is that you've got a tight, easily modifiable system, that's using the latest technologies, by two of the most respected forum programmers in the field.
You've also got an huge enthusiastic group of individuals who if they haven't already, are geared up to pump mods out left and right.
Not to mention you're not going to get a lot of doubletalk BS, or empty promises about how "Oh yes, that's going to happen", and then 6 months down the road you still don't see it.
Let's talk about bug support. I've lately taken to watching the bug report/resolution thread, and they're tearing through the bugs as quickly as they're reported.
I'm going to get off of my soapbox now.
