As a student who's used BB and a geek who's explored Moodle, I would choose Moodle hands down. I had many problems with BB being slow and not liking firefox and in a couple cases gnu/linux in general. They may be fixed now (this was a few years ago) but why wouldn't we use Moodle with it's philosophy? Hands down argument for me.
