Ranking with .info domains

I know, I know, it's a subject that's been done to death right?

But in all the threads I read very little gets said on actual experience in ranking with .infos, just a lot of theories and best guesses. so i was wondering - what experience have you in ranking with .info's?

Have you tried and succeeded?
Have you tried and failed?

I ask because right now I have very little to add to the debate but I am interested. The reason I am interested is I have been following a couple of the adsense threads and have taken action with about 5 sites so far that are going well and went to target a keyword that looks very promising but the .com and the .net have gone.

Now usually if the .com has gone I move on or maybe add another word to it, but this time I have decided to try test the .info domain. As with all marketing it's all about testing right?

This site has very similar numbers of competition, PR of ranking sites, backlinks etc as 2 of my existing adsense sites so I think it would be interesting to test it against those

So over the next month I will be seeing how well I can get it ranked using the same linking systems I have with the other 2 - and seeing if there is a difference.

Obviously it won't be exact, they are targetting different keywords etc, but it should give me a good base to build my own opinions, and obviously I will check back here with the results.

But whilst I am doing this I'll ask again - what are people's experiences with ranking .info domains? Experiences, not theories.
