i have to say in my experience, vbulletin is by far the best, there is a free light version of it, but doesnt have as many features, but the full version really rocks, it has by far the most and best features i have ever seen on a bbs

Another vote for vbulletin. Definitely the best bb software anywhere. There is also an excellent front end to it, designed for community derrived sites.
Its called vbportal http://www.vbportal.com
