Magento Commerce Open Source Software: Good and Not So Good

I'm one of those who got really excited when I was first stumbled onto the open source software being developed by Magento Commerce. Since that time, I have tried to follow the development of Magento, but alas, I haven't had any first hand experience with using any of the beta versions.

Sadly, I've now tested in on several hosting accounts, and I have yet to get all the way through an installation. The installation process itself is a beast, and it usually requires me to make a number of changes to file permissions, PHP settings, etc. But for really great software, I don't have a problem suffering through a troublesome installation. That is, if the end I could actually get to the fun part of trying out the system.
