A .com extension also looks better in SERPs or so.
So if you want to start a serious site with a domain name, always choose a .COM!
(This post doesn't count for domain names just used for submitting galleries and free sites, though)

- couldn't have said it any better!
I have to add: I don't collect domains like some, and also don't own a single dot-NET.
If I register something it has to be dot-COM (or currently I'm considering a dot-INFO/COM combination)
