What's wrong with Artscroll shas? my husband uses it all the time for learning, as do most of the serious guys in the beis medrash. Supposedly, there are some footnotes there that you can't obtain elsewhere. (He uses it for research not as his gemara)

anon: On a serious note in yeshiva when you are first learning how to learn rebbeim feel that you should work on the gemarah yourself as you have time and it helps you learn better. Artscroll is great but it does not give you the tools to learn. Trust me I use it. I guess you have to be in yeshiva to understand the joke. If I explain it it ruins it (;.

But thanks for commenting. If this is ski i am so mad.
