The bottle was designed to resemble Pamela Anderson
I miss it as well (even though I would have given it up to save my bones like I did Coke)
As Virgin Cola sponsored numerous Music events, it was one of the few competetively priced and COLD drinks you could get on a sweltering day somewhere like Reading Festival.

Diet Pepsi, drinking one right now. But I am trying (and generally succeeding) to drink less of it. The main replacement is brewed iced tea. I have one of those silly coffee maker-like brewing machines in the kitchen here at the office, and while that was totally in the way at home, here it's a great idea.
I try to only drink one Diet Pepsi a day now, but there's a case in the fridge because of a meeting, so I've had two today.
I don't much like Diet Coke, but I'll drink it in a pinch. I tried Coke Zero for the first time recently, not as bad as Diet Coke, but I still prefer Diet Pepsi over both. Diet Pepsi Max is interesting, but I generally stay away unless I really do need extra caffeine. Regulars (even ones made with all sugar rather than HFCS) are pretty hard to drink anymore. I have to be really desperate for the taste of cola....

Pepsi with Preztels is the best snack/drink combo on earth. The salty pretzel compliments the Pepsi so well
I drink both but lean towards Pepsi.
If something can unrust a nail (Coke) then I don't think it should be consumed daily

! Seriously? The tastes are completely different (at least to me). I can definitely tell which is which. Pepsi is definitely sweeter, but Coke has more of a refreshing "hit" when you take a sip. It seems like Coke is more more tangy/bubbly
