I usually don’t care about these debates, but this is fun:

UIE Brain Sparks » Blog Archive » Do Links Need Underlines?: “But users are trained to click on underlined things. (Did you move your mouse over the underlined text in the previous sentence to see if it was a link? Don’t be concerned — so did I and I knew it wasn’t a link.)”
