Re. APTonCD, it actually creates a repository on the disc that can be used through Synaptic or any APT interface. It doesn't *just* copy the files over.
As for using tar to pack your home folder, and extract again after the installation, having /home on a seperate partition is easy enough (there are even guides on the web, but I don't have web access atm) and eliminates the need for tar and plenty of free space. For someone who reinstalls every release (and once 6 times in one day) it really is great. Matthew.
