Rock shox have been my best all round experience they are so simple and while they do break (my pikes hyrdolocked) they are really really simple to fix. Just 10 mins 2 o-rings and a bit of oil. Yes they are heavier than for and the damping isnt quite as refined but that is part of the joy they just work.
Marzocchis are simple too but they seem to have a few more bits inside them than RS do and more bits = more bits to break. They are super supple but too heavy.
At the moment and IME RS seem to be to be right in the middle between Fox and Marz in that the take the best of both and that is why they just work.
