It's a script autoinstaller.. you can install over 30 web scripts with a few clicks 
it's quite nifty, really.

Oh because I could have swarn you asked what it offered instead of how some people like it.
I actually love it. I don't have to upload a whole bunch of files and folders or upload a compressed file and have the server decompress it, just to get the software ready to install. All I do is login to cPanel, click the Fantastico section, then pick, out of the list of available software, whatever it is I want to install. Fantastico asks where on the domain I want to install the new software. Most of the time Fantastico will prompt for user and pass or whatever other dynamic information that the new software needs. Next, I just click the install button, the page refreshes, and voila. I'm done. The first time I used it, I was like :shocked: at how fast and easy it is. The only drawback is that when you want to install anything that's not on the list, you have to do it manually -which isn't really all that bad, actually, just takes a crapload longer and is way more labor intensive than just clicking a few buttons.

Yup. You can go from DNS propagation to completely functioning, fully operational domain loaded with features in a dozen or so clicks and a little typing.
I personally dont like it.. If you cant figure out how to install a php app, then you probably wont be able to figure out how to maintain it.. And you will get haxored.

SofaKing beat me to it
danklumpp is probably thinking of a site builder.
I would check out the EasySite template for $5, that's a $5 one time fee

really? i would have assumed that most computer illiterate people aren't looking to buy webhosting themselves to make webpages. i assumed small business owners and the average computer user think they need to "hire" someone to make a page for them.
i would assume that those who shell out $5-10 per month for web hosting at least know what they are getting into.
i've never resold webhosting space, so i'm purely speculating.
Thank's RossMAN, that doesn't look to bad, and it has PayPal links for the payments, just what I need. Thanks for everyone else's thoughts also.
