I personally prefer having a monolithic kernel with
all the features
compiled in.

I guess it would depend on the system and what you
intend to use the system for. 

If you are working on cutting-edge and
development/testing, then you will require modular
support.

If you are an end-user who simply want to use the
system, with quick boots, performance, then you might
as well have all the  modules compiled in, after
installing/configuring your hardware.
