There is a big difference from the users stand point. If you want to see how "hot" this topic can get go to [1] and search for forum . As an individual I prefer mailing list but I understand why some prefer forums. For those that do not have high speed connections forums are a bandwidth hog. The disadvantage to a mailing list is most of the time you have to be subscribed or you may miss replies to your question and makes it hard to follow up as needed.
