I have no idea about the features or "Betterness" of the magic wand in The Gimp but from most it comes highly recommended. I only use it occasionally. GimpShop puts a familiar PhotoShop look to Gimp. Many prefer this as it more closely resembles the way a Windows user would expect a photo editor to look and behave.
