In the end it's all down to preference and even that can be changed.
Very true. Took me a while to get used to SRAM after Shimano but now, even running both on different bikes, I'm more than happy with either. They're just different. I like the clickiness of SRAM, and the rock-solid brake lever, but changing down a gear feels like a little less effort with Shimano. Swings and roundabouts.
