i went with PT myself. Mainly because when we bought the house, we didn't have a ton of extra coin floating around.
A good friend of mine has the synthetic stuff (bought the house with it) and the deck is over 10 years old and still looks ace.
If you plan on living in the house for a long time, invest in the synthetic stuff. If you plan on moving, put in the pressure treated stuff. (Mine is 5 years old and it's JUST starting to look like it could use a stain.
