    I have a 60 and a 40 both with upgraded HD's, but I voted for the 60 because I love it the most.  :)

    I have a stripped down 80gb. I wish Sony didn't have to remove backwards compatibility due to production costs.

    I have a 60gig backward compatible PS3 but it's broken (a red light of death?) and despite claims from PSR1.com that I will get the same system back I'm still worried I will end up with a PS3 Slim in the next couple weeks.

    80 Gig should be broken up into two different categories.  The backwards compatible one (4 USB Ports) and the non backwards compatible one (2 USB Ports).
     
    I have the 4 USB one.

    I have had the 60gb since launch with zero problems, unless you count the mysterious cracked controller I found the day after some heavy drinking. I didn't remember playing games that night at all?!?

    60 GB. I was one of  the three people that didn't have a PS2, so I wanted it for playing PS2 games as well.

    You know there are two 80GB models, right? One is backwards compatible and one's not.

    I voted 60G but in reality it's whichever one was the first to retail for $399.  That's when I picked one up.

    I think I have the 160GB one.  Not sure though, not at home currently to check.  It came with Uncharted.

    Slimmin it. 
     
    I hate that the (entirely interchangeable) HDD sizes are the most obvious defing factor between the models. 
     
    I wish I had gotten a BC model early on. That PS2 emulator on PS3 is seeming more and more bogus every six months. :(

    Wow, 10 months after the slim launched almost 30% of the giantbomb users own one. Considering the PS3 launched in november 2006, that sure shows many people waited for the cheaper slim model (i guess).

    I wasn't bothered by the PS3 at all really (plus I didn't have a job) but I got a job just before the Slim came out so I got that and I love it xD I just have moments of either playing on the 360 or the PS3 so no general favourite =]

    Slim. I would have liked one with BC, but I already have a PS2, so it's not like it matters.

    I have the lovely white and pink Final Fantasy XIII Japanese slim version. One of the benefits of working abroad - it was cheaper than the equivalent vanilla version! :D

    I have a slim, which, now I've learnt about OtherOS(which is mostly gone now), I regret buying it instead of an older model. But, hey, it's still a PS3, right?
