as others said, i'll echo:

what's your overall budget? if 1k or less, go hardtail. you'll get a much better buildup on a 1k hardtail than a 1k fully.

how about a burly hardtail, with a longer travel fork, and room for fatter tires in the back end? a little more comfy than a skinny hardtail, and you can ride pretty much anything on one of those that you can on a fully.......

if you shop carefully, you can also get scremaing deals on a last years model: gets you more bike per buck, so long as you don't care about having the absolute newest thing.
