I cast "Baconstorm!"
I started with BECMI, and played 2e in college, but really got back into gaming with 3e (actually 3.5e). Right now I'm oscillating between 3.5e (and variants) and Basic/Labyrinth Lord. Really it just depends on what type of campaign I want.
The main reasons I didn't get on the 4e wagon were mostly practical and aesthetic, rather than mechanical. I simply didn't like its presentation at the time it came out, and didn't know anyone interested in playing it. I'll soon be taking another look with the Essentials 4e stuff, though, as that seems to more closely align with my D&D sensibilities.
In the end, though, I don't actually care why anyone likes or dislikes my particular edition(s) of choice. The only important thing to me is finding good people to play with when I can, and playing whatever game we all enjoy.
