because they give you the illusion of being closer to the action, and you're a nuts and bolts kind of guy?
you like Ctrl-C better than a stop button?
because you're a masochist?
Most likely because it's what you learned first.

The only issue I have is if I build too big, it generates a nbh that is around 108kb.... I think the max size I've built sucessfully is around 136mb nbh. Any bigger, it won't build right. I may have to look into the ppckitchen again next week.
The old tools weren't designed to create larger than 128MB CE partitions. The really old tools, even less. A simple patch will turn it into a 256MB version, but some people will need more RAM in their PC to use that.

BTW, it's not that you can't get the job done with the old tools, it just takes longer because there are too many quirks to get it right the first (or the tenth) build.
