I so far didn't work with it, but one thing makes me think VE is cooler - the setuptools-installed commands work, regardless of the environment. So starting e.g. paster will always pick the right environment if invoked from within a VE. I don't see this happen with the PYTHONUSERBASE. So I personally will stick with VE for now.
