I run schrader because I don't see any reason not to given that I run mid-width rims and 32mm tires, and I have an air compressor in my garage. With Schrader valves I can top off all 3 cars, all the bikes and my Airzound in about 5 minutes without messing with anything.

I'm pretty sure every bike I've ever owned came originally with Schrader valves (I've never paid more than $300 new for a bike so far).
I have a Schwinn pump that only does Schrader (from Walmart nonetheless) >.<
It came with one of those adapter things - which was promptly lost.
