I chose Hybrid, because I really don't have a base for my characters, I just go with a lot of different things. You see, I don't particularly like magic, but I do like stealth and combat. But I also like my characters to be good with speechcraft and mercantile.

I do the same as Milk. Though, I never really get far with magic characters in Morrowind.

I prefer magic based characters - I just feel more powerful as a magic based character.

Dammit, Vanir...... I had an awesome daydream of me and Anne Hathaway on a private island. And then in the daydream you came in and murdered her, then asking for my hand in marriage.

Cool. I always had problems multitasking with hybrids, as I'd focus on one part of them and then realize that they were too weak in other respects... :P

In Oblivion, stealth every time, in Morrowind, combat every time. Stealth in MW is totally lame...

Stealth(with mods) in Oblivion, Magic(with mods) in Morrowind...speed-based short-blade only custom 'bloodmage' in Daggerfall....to span all games I'll just select 'hybrid' though :)

I love me a mage, magic is just too fun to mess around with once you've gained a good bunch of levels. I like me a good stealth character too though, hard to pick which is my favorite, but mage for now.

Hybrid, all the way. Any one class or specialty is too boring, so I usually go with Mage-Stealth-Warrior.

I like hybrids, although I have a near pure mage.

Possibly...

I love magic because once you get to high enough levels you get awesome spells like Finger of Death, Wail of the Banshee, Meteor Storm, Time Stop...wait, I was thinking of a good rpg. In TES (a suitably fine action/rpg) I tend towards chaos. The magic fails in comparison to D&D; the stealth fails in comparison to Thief; the combat fails in comparison to...well I haven't actually found any game that does melee combat well. Now, I'm not saying TES is bad, not at all. I'm saying it's average, and so, to celebrate in its mediocrity, I usually play as a jack-of-all-trades, or, since the leveling system is broken (especially in Morrowind), a master-of-all-trades. Although, with mods included, I've actually gotten quite a bit of pleasure out of the stealth in Oblivion.
