Which is better, BT4 or BT5?

[sostentado]

I just want to pick some comments about bt4 and bt5 of what backtrack version you like the most.

*BT4

[Ro0t_]

BT 4 R2 that is until they work out all the bugs but this is normal since you really never know how things will run until people start running the distro on thousands of differently configured machines. It's the case of trial and error. they'll get it running near perfect but it takes time and remember these guys have jobs other than supporting Backtrack so I give them a lot of credit for doing this for the community. 5 thumbs up for the BT team!

BT4 i think as no problems. BT5 is better and faster but needs some bugs ironing out and some other tools which are missing.
Still i am using BT5 on some machines, and BT4 on one as i got Cuda running on it nicely.

Well 5 is bigger than 4, so BT5 is better!

I use both version of them
BT5 installed as a dual boot with win7 and BT4 running in my virtual pentest lab.

BT5 takes some getting used to, but I am starting to like it more.

I am glad all the "skid stain" tools were removed. They were making me stupid.
