RR is just as easy to setup as any other front end, and I have to say ive always got good help when im stuck. Because it doesnt look as fancy as the other front ends websites, its not perceieved to run 'streight out of the box' like other FE's claim.
RR has a good mix of skinners, programmers, and hardware guru's that keep RR way above the rest of other front ends, and best of all it's free, the only money thats required is donations for the good work these guys do.
