Just wanted to add my input for forum software. Simple Machines Forum
(SMF) is a great, free, and open source forum system that uses
PHP/MySQL. I personally have found it to work the best for me as it
includes lots of features out of the box and an easy theme system.

Try out the RC of 1.1 for some even nicer new features like AJAX editing
and enhanced search functions.

P.S. I own a license of vBulletin. In my opinion it's not worth it for
the money. Now if only I had known about SMF before buying vBulletin... :D
