The new version is very different to the old. It's completely integrated with vBulletin, in the sense that it's entirely based on the thread/post system. Because of this, the biggest benefit is that you get the stability of vB3 - everything works in much the same way as the rest of the forum, so you get all the additional features threads have. (Such as polls, for example.)

The difference is that threads are called articles, and posts are called comments. And of course, the layout is geared towards article presentation, as well as all the old v3 Article features.

Does this mean that it will soon work with VB 3.0.3? Just wondering. I tried installing and like most folks, it didn't work so I had no choice but to abort due to SQL errors.
