The funny thing is that I think quill stems are far more elegant than any ahead stem. I have a Nitto quill and it's truely nice. I can adjust it up and down with an allen wrench. You can't do that with an ahead stem. Somehow, I think the bike companys missed the boat on this.

Guess this qualifies me as a retro grouch....
