Kitchen sink choices

 Hi - I'm having a granite countertop installed and am unsure about what
sink to buy.  I have 2 bowl stainless steel which I like; my instinct
is to buy a new one similar to that (undermount, though).  My husband
like the Pegasus granite composite sink in black.  I know from
experience that the stainless is quite satisfactory for me...
indestructible, cleans up well, etc.  Anyone have experience with a
dark colored granite composite sink?  Thoughts?  I am especially
interested in whether it needs any special care or consideration, and
whether hard water would be a problem.  Thanks for any input.

No experience, but I went stainless because it's got a long history of
reliable use, never been a problem for me, and it's a bonus that it's
currently in style.

Dark granite composite... I'm not sure it'll remain in style until
when you decide to sell your home.

As for the functional concerns, I'll defer to those who actually
have/use em.

 Thanks Todd.  It appears we kinda think alike!  But, have read enough
good stuff about the granite to decide to risk it.  Hopefully we don't
regret it!  Kate

We have the Blanco SilGranit sink (in black), and it has been wonderful.  
It's about a year old, and we have not been able to stain it with anything,
it cleans up easily, and it's far quieter than our previous stainless steel
sink.  Nothing but positive reviews from me.
