Which CSS reset do you prefer?

I've taken the Front-end developer track and Normalize was suggested to reset browser styles. Hampton recommends Reset. Reset seems to be more popular according to Hampton and http://www.cssreset.com/. What has your experience been with those? Any advantages of one over the other?

I much prefer a reset to Normalize. Normalize just adds too much stuff for me. It does provide some pretty nice boilerplate styles, but they quickly get in the way as I start building out the various components of a website. Resets get out of my way and let met get my stuff done.

When you are starting and want a simple site is ok to use Normalize. But when you are working a lot on a website, sometimes Normalize is a headache for me. Now i can see my mistakes on the past. Reset makes to you know everything is 0 so you don't have to overwrite and lose your time.
