Thanks Tom for the explanation and links. TortoiseBzr looks interesting although TortoiseSVN seems a lot more mature and complete to my eyes. Branching hasn't been a problem for me on SVN because I merely use it only for checkout and update for web.py and a few other open source packages. Nor has dependability.
I am not quite sure how it works as a distributed VCS - does it require me to open ports and serve as a peer to peer server? I guess I can do a bit more reading online.
