I used to use Mental Ray 2. I found it easier to use than Final Render or Brazil. The caustics were a little bit more tricky to have to deal with. Overall it's a good renderer. But I think Vray is faster, easier to use, and produces better results. Who knows if this changed with the latest version of Max.
Keep in mind that the new MR in MAX6 is very different from the old version, and you will have access to about 30+ new shaders that take advantage of MR in a whole new way.... or in the way it should be taken into advantage. Is it better then Vray? It is very different, and I just don't think it is fair to compare for either one.
