 I fancied a play once too... but she slapped me when I started to play with
her in the hallway :-)

  anyway....  Wouldn't you want to run Nessus on a network you're conducting
a pentest on to get a general overview of what vulnerabilities it finds?
Sure beats guessing or hoping that server-suchandsuch isn't patched.

  As far as automated tools go, bah, manually exploiting the holes is
certainly the way to go.  But, the automated tools usually produce nice
pretty reports that you can show the client.  They just LOOOOOVVVVVEEEEEE
pretty reports with many bright colors and such for the good stuff and dark
"hacker like" colors for the bad stuff :-)
