I'm gonna throw another question in there...

If you're replacing your fork, why not go to threadless? You'd have to replace your stem and headset as well, but you'll gain easier headset adjustability and better selection of forks, as well as lighter weight and (according to some) greater fork and stem durability. Of course, the downside is aesthetics in my opinion, since quill stems are prettier.

Nashbar has a 1" Ritchey threadless headset for $13 right now, and an assortment of threadless stems for $20 or less
