Well, for starters, it's not just a copy of Bitcoin this time(not a full one at least). I've seen and participated in every single alt-coin so far, but all of them were blatant copies of Bitcoin with minor changes to protocol(such as difficulty).
PPcoin aims for 0% energy use, though that is not entirely true as the coins need to be mined for a while(hybrid design), but then you needn't mine to generate blocks. Proof of Stake is something very interesting imho.

I do not have an opinion on PPCoin because I do not know enough about it. I am going to read the PPCoin paper and relevant threads now. While I am doing that I would like you to post why you do or do not like PPCoin. Opinions do not need to be backed up but please back up anything that you believe is a fact. Thank you.
