Disadvantages: Guests cost additional $$s; higher cost per year.

All in all, I think the PP is a good deal.
The flexibility looks good, but it does cost more (especially for a perspective College Student) and I'll have guests sometimes, so again a negative. I stay on the AS routemap fairly well, and if I deviate, its usually with NW, so I'm mostly covered.

Also, I seem to recall that CO was putting in a PC to open in LAS this summer... which would be a nice new location for BR members. I'm looking into a trip there with a friend after he and I "are of age" and this would be a nice plus!
