Try it, you'll see its advantages. It does take a bit longer to start 
up, but it has a few more features, like advanced mirror detection and 
filelists/changelog views (if you enable them, since it takes even 
longer to get those). Plus it now has a package queue that makes it a 
lot easier to search and install a lot of different kinds of packages in 
one shot.
