Browsing around online I found that some menorahs have seven lights while other have 8 lights. What type of menorah is best to by?

Ok, so I found now an article explaining the difference. It can be seen at http://www.hhjudaica.com/Menorahs-1.html (scroll down to the bottom half of the page to see the article.) It's pretty interesting that in the temple there was 7 and for Hanukkah the menorah needs to have 8 +1.

anyone with more info?
