Horizontal, with a PC game case under either side so that only about 2 inches of it are actually touching anything. MUCH better cooling.

Vertical because it not only looks better but it also tends to run quiter and cooler.

I failed to notice those differences when I had my PS3 sitting horizontal. It was just a quiet, and didn't get hot. I decided to stand it up vertically because I thought it looked better that way. ;)

Horizontal placed on bottle caps on each edge to lift it slightly over the table to allow for better air circulation (to make sure overheating isn't a problem). Heard of this idea from someone in these forums (don't remember who) but its working wonders :P

Vertical on the floor, Horizontal's more likely to get stepped on coz it's right next to a door

Verticalnext to my TV. The way my entertainment center is set up; It's either that, or in the middle of the floor in the path of a major "traffic" area where it may get stepped on.
