32 vs 36 hubs / wheels??

Hi all,

I'm starting my first build, and I'm shopping around for some Campy hubs. Seems that 36 hole hubs are pretty prevalent on Ebay etc for a reasonable price. I had sort of figured on 32 hole, but they are a bit scarcer. Money is indeed a factor with this build so my question is this: If I find a good deal on a set of 36 hole hubs, what difference is this going to make to the wheels that I end up with?? I'm not a weight weenie, but I don't want to build a tank, either. What does a 36 spoke wheel give me?

Thanks in advance.
