I play in full screen windowed mode so I can see the time on my computer's taskbar. That way I don't stay up too late playing or forget to eat when my hubby isn't home to remind me.
I have been playing The Sims since 2001, when Livin Large came out. My avatar deliberately looks like Chris Roomies from TS1.
Windowed full screen - it seems to work well for multi-monitor setups like mine. I can easily use the windows key + shift + arrow key to move the game to another monitor if needed.
Full screen because that's just what I've always done. I really only use my computer to play games everything else is done on a phone tablet or laptop.
Currently playing full screen although I would prefer playing windowed mode. Somehow I can’t get the resolution settings right, the proportions of my game get messed up if I don’t use full screen..
Until recently, it was alway Full Screen for me. But not so long ago, I've tried Windowed Full Screen, and I feel like my game runs a bit smoother. It's definitely easier to check something on the Internet etc., because when I minimize the full screen version, it tends to lag afterwards for a moment. The only disadvantage is that the edge scrolling doesn't work for me in windowed mode, and I'm really used to that. Maybe I'll try to change my habits though.

Windowed mode since SimCity 4 and The Sims 2.
