[:"blue"] Infopop has been developing messageboards for a very long time, and has the most experience. UBB.threads has less features, but is more stable and faster. Infopop will also provide better tech support. I also prefer the UBB.threads interface over vBulletin (even more than the vBulletin 3 dynamic interface)
BTW, v6.5 (currently in dev beta) has an admin panel like UBB.classic.
