Preview or Adobe Reader?
Do you prefer to use Preview to read PDF files, or Adobe Reader?

Why are you using a Windows app on a Mac computer?
I don't see a Mac version on that website.

I'm also wondering why no one has voted in the poll yet. Considering the number of views this thread has received.

Just to read PDFs - Preview. To work with a PDF (like fill it in and save it) - Reader.

My association for PDF is Preview.

I had preferred Preview, but about three months ago I purchased Adobe CS4 with Acrobat 9, so I use that as the default.
