IC is great, and if I had a choice of just one mod to play with, it'd still probably be IC2. But I think closed-source mods have no future.
Is there some UU-equivalent in other mods, btw?

I find it strange that so many players takes time-consuming as hard, I mean what's hard about requiring 750 rubies to macerate into dust and run it through another machine to get the chrome dusts needed so you can upgrade the very same machine you ran your chrome dust through?
I do like the solar aspect of them, it's really making use of a greener type world and I for one don't object to that but I mostly let someone else who plays with me deal with IC2 since I like getting an infrastructure in place so I can start doing my cool builds
Heh I agree it is in need of an update and it isn't, I can usually get IC2 power up quickly but I just prefer the magmatic power and TE's way of providing MJ
and in what way EU infrastructure is better than MJ?I can't agree more with you, it works well but it's starting to get a bit old, yet I personally thinks it's way better than MJ infrastructure.

Just to mention a few, I have only mention power transfer and -storage
- Better storage (including a few varieties based on how much you need buffered)
- Doesn't have to be configured when placed next to an input
- Cable varieties based on how big your packets are.
- The ability to hide cables behind CF (in case you don't have any other mods doing that for you)
Of course EU is going to seem better than MJ if you compare it on EU's terms. But to take your points in turn (assuming Vanilla IC2 for simplicity's sake):Just to mention a few, I have only mention power transfer and -storage

Why bother. IC2 development has been stagnant for ages. Whoever claims IC2's energy infrastructure is 'better' is just in denial about their 'favorite' mod not being as shiny as it used to be.
