I was in MassChallenge '10 and it was a great experience. One big difference between MC and most incubators is that it's a non-profit. You get free office space, access to a great set of mentors, and, if you're one of the top teams, you get a share of $1m. Everything, including the money, is non-dilutive and comes with no strings attached.

That is actually pretty cool.
I am noticing that many state governments are also sponsoring various forms of incubators, which also offer non-dilutive funds. I think that can be just what some start-ups need.
