Having owned both acrylic and glass tanks over the years (my current tank is acrylic), I will say that they both have their advantages. But if you're looking at a tank in the 75-90 gallon range, I would recommend going with glass.
Glass tanks are quite a bit cheaper than acrylic until you get up into the 250-300 gallon range. Plus, glass can be drilled (though tempered glass absolutely cannot be drilled; the bottom pane on most mass-built tanks are usually tempered).
Acrylic is much more durable than glass, and the joints in acrylic tanks are fused, rather than glued together like in glass tanks, so there is less chance of a leak occuring. But glass tanks under 200 gallons don't have all that much water pressure pushing against the glass, so the chances of a leak occuring that way are slim.
Acrylic also scratches VERY EASILY. I've put more scratches in my current tank than all of my collective tanks in the past, and I would consider myself a careful person. Fortunately, scratches in acrylic can be repaired easily, while scratches in glass are virtually unrepairable.
Acrylic tanks are also much lighter than glass tanks (I was able to lift my 300g on its stand by myself using only sawhorses), but under 100g, that's a mute point, as glass tanks can be moved just as easily.
My opinion is the choice really boils down to what will be kept in the tank. And my advice here would be the opposite of ComputrGk's. Acrylic is fantasic in most respects, but makes maintenance much more difficult in a reef setting. Coralline algae seems to grow about 100x's easier on acrylic surfaces than glass. For instance, I slacked in my maintenance routine for about 3 weeks recently, and every pane of acrylic was 85-90% COVERED in coralline algae. It took almost 6 hours to scrub it all, plus I had to use repair kits to fix all the scratches I made. This never would have happened on a glass tank (well, it would have, but I would have had to slacked for a few more months).
