i think this is the main benefit of pr besides the ego thing.

for instance, i have a pr5 site and a site with a pr4. they have about the same number of pages, optimized about the same. even though the pr5 site is newer than the pr4 it has 2 1/2 times as many pages spidered and indexed.

i also think that by paying special attention to the way you link internally and externally on your sites you can maximize the amount of pr you distribute.

take it easy,
