In addition to Filipe's detailed reply - when I was looking at details for a new VPN server options in the last few days I noticed that PPTP support was always mentioned as "PPTP+IPSEC", which doesn't gives an impression like people who use or sell PPTP don't have much confidence in its security when used stand-alone.
