I know it's here somewhere, but I couldn't find it.

Getting ready to install a sub-panel in my new detached garage. I want to put in a 100-amp panel. It will be fed (4-wires) from a 80-amp breaker added to my 200-amp main service panel (it's a Cutler-Hammer).

I think I remember reading about Q.O. - anyone?

Here you go

I just picked up a QO for mine but only because my house has a Zinsco that I need to replace. If the panel in my house didn't need replacing I would get a panel that matched it.

Completely agree... I'd go QO if it was time to pick a box, but if the main wasn't a POS (and a CH is not dangerous) I'd match it so it looks better and I only need to have one type of breaker.
