I used to have an f/4L non-IS but then I sold it because I wasn't using it at all.
Now I'm looking into getting the f/2.8L IS because I feel it would be a useful addition for (indoor) sports (135L is great but often a bit short, 300/4L IS is too long and slow)

f/4 IS. Got it recently and haven't even USED it yet because Canon is taking longer than expected on calibrating my camera.

I have the older, 80-200 f/2.8L. I voted for the 70-200 f/2.8L non-IS, as the 80-200 is just as good optically (if not a bit better), and there's no way I'm buying the 70-200 variant unless mine breaks.

I would consider the 70-200 f/4L IS if I had the money....good for a more compact general usage / travel lens.

Havent used my f4 since I got my 300 f2.8. Too slow, too short, and only one body, so it languishes at home while I go play. Anyone looking for mint used....?
