Ok, to put it simply, what does vBulletin have in terms of features compared to IPB v2, and I'm not talking about support.

Can anyone tell me what the main differences are between vBulletin and IPB v2?

I realise that, but 99% of the features are there already. Its only really bug testing at the moment.

I've played with 2.0 and I like vB3 much more. I've seen nothing compare to a vb3 admin cp at this point. Perrmissions work much better in a vB then a ipb imo, I am running a ipb atm on one of my communitys. We've ran into so many problems with it we are going to have to convert it to vB3.

Agreed. I recently purchased ExpressionEngine by pMachine and was surprised how clean their code looks like compared to vB3

Smart, computer savy users use linux because it is much more secure. It may be harder to use, but there are more options than in Windows. Windows is more for the dumb user, are you saying that I should get Invision PowerBoard instead of vBulletin because vBullletin is crappy, unstable, unsecure, and extreemly slow?
