Pros and cons of electronics boards/boxes

I'm investigating the pros and cons of electronoics boards and boxes. I'm in charge of 1351's control systems and I'd like to have a good idea of how to organize the electronics before build season starts. I've read most of the threads and seen the pictures of other teams boxes. (especially this thread)

However, will somebody please follow up and say how these "awesome" boxes and boards actually worked in competition? What were their flaws? Benefits? What is the advantage of having a box/board as opposed to simply mounting all the electronics the bottom of the chassis in an organized pattern?

I realize these questions are vague, and I apologize. A list of pros and cons for a specific idea, (comparing it to other ideas too) would be good.

Thank you!

Thanks for making FIRST such a great experience for me. I'm no longer on 1351, and I'm not currently planning to mentor team 97, but FIRST has meant so much in getting me to where I am now, in life and at MIT, class of 2011.
I met Billfred! He recognized me!
