I definitely want Calphalon. But should I go with the Stainless Steel which is so pretty, or the anodized aluminum that has the nonstick coating?

I have never cooked with pans without the nonstick coating before, what should I expect if I do go with the stainless? Any reviews on the cookware sets?

I am moving out and want to get a quality set of cookware, but what's the best? I've seen stainless steel, try-ply stainless steel, non-stick, and hard-anodized. Money is not an issue because I understand that it is worth the money to get a quality set of cookware.
I am concerned about the cookware that is the nonstick coating. While I don't mind handwashing it as suggested, I am concerned about scratching which can resulting in the chemicals being released in the cooking.
