Rigid vs. suspension fork?

After many years layoff from mountain biking, I'm building a Nashbar hardtail frame using components laying about. I want a good all-around bike, no extreme trails or drops.

What's the pros & cons of using a rigid fork vs. suspension fork? My old Rockhopper had a basic Rokshok that worked decently. Looked at a CF rigid fork that's offered by Nashbar- anyone have any experience with it?
