Creatine: pills vs powder. Does it matter how you take it?

I was shopping today and found some 5mg pills. I didn't buy them...wanted to get input from you guys first. Does it really matter how you take it?

Some people don't like having to deal with mixing the powder, but buying it in pill form is ridiculously overpriced. Go for the powder. You get a lot more for your money.

5 mg pills!?!?! You would have to take 1000 to equal 5 gm. It's all about powder.

I must have beem mistaken. They were 5 gram pills. Around 80 for $10.00

Thanks for the replies.

I'm one of the weird ones, I didn't get much results from the powdered creatine and used a liquid form. I got great results. The only problem I saw with that was all the label said was 5cc per day - it didn't matter how big you were (lbs). That bothers me a bit.....but I get decent gains.

Powder is superior.
