Trangias are OK... But I prefer home-made penny-stoves - my favourite one at the moment is made of Red Bull cans, and is tiny and light. Or a stick-fire in a hobo-stove or my Evernew DX (which a Red Bull penny-stove fits in); I find the processing of sticks therapeutic, and a part of a more 'complete' experience.
Horses for courses, I s'pose. But I personally like a cooking system that's small, light, and gives me a few fuel options, just in case I'm feeling lazy, or there's no availability of sticks and twigs.
