Cgminer is better for more experienced people but guiminer is better for new miners
exactly...
many news have no idea how to use cgminer while the are used to windows applications and can learn to use guiminer quickly...
Personally Ive tried both, dont see a huge difference other then the benefits of people who like to use gui interface instead of cli
I never tried GUIminer, I bought a dedicated PC with a good graphics card and installed xubuntu and started mining with CGminer.
I check up on it a few times a day and that's it. On the weekends I check the pool I'm connected it to. Works flawlessly!

GUI Miner is just a front end that makes running other miners like CGMiner easier. It also has built in configurations for many pools. My new book actually covers both. :-) Should be out the end of this week or early next week.

I used GUI for about 3 months until I got my dedicated rig...CGMiner is so much better once you actually use it. I love it so much!

almost impossible to use it on my mac though... macports makes my head spin. that's why i bought an old pc and put my vid cards in it instead =)
I'd love to use it to, just can't get it to work, must not be enough of a Linux guru,
Just use Windows. I tried and tried to get everything to work under Linux, I'm a two-decade Unix sysadmin, and I finally gave up and loaded up Windows.

Linux is much better than Microsoft Word!
I love Linux!

cgminer is definitely better and has more features if you know how to use it.
