Yes I do.  I have no affiliation with them other than a happy customer.

The big thing for me is that it uses a backing store filesystem on the SD card (exFAT recommended) and your disk/cdrom/tape images are just files.  Changing OSes is nothing more than shutting down and swapping the SD card.  I also really like being able to copy/backup the files - this makes for stress free experimentation.  If you nuke your OS - just copy the last good image back on.
