PunBB
+ Very lightweight
+ Also means fast
- (afaik) relatively closed development

UseBB
+ Heavy developement
+ Easy for people who doesen't even have expirence of forums
+ Easily skinned
- it's quite unknown

If I were selecting a forum I would first work out exactly what my requirements were and then find the script which most closely matched those requirements. If I wasn't sure about a particular forums features then I would ask specific questions. I'm afraid just asking for a general comparison doesn't really get you very far.
