I usually go for Redguard because I find the Adrenalin Rush ability very helpful in the beginning. My preferred star sign would be Atronach because I don't use magic that much. It has one major downside though and that is it leaves your character unable to restore magic points when resting.

Up until Skyrim I would go with an Argonian. I think the Khajiit's look better in Skyrim though
