If you don't like to compile - use the packages. If you don't know what 
they are, they are binaries. Mostly intended for the users that don't 
wish to deal with cvsuping the ports tree nor intend on useing the ports 
tree.

Packages are good for systems that have some what limited disk space. 
Also good for the user that does not wish to "get to know" FreeBSD.
