The main things Fractice has going for it (besides being free) are its movie recording, deep zoom, and parallel/distributed processing features. These features were handy for creating a Mandelbrot deep zoom movie out to 2^316, at 648x480 with 2x antialiasing, using a cluster of up to 20 dual-core PCs on a LAN, all running the Fractice rendering server (FractServ).
