When, if at all, do you drink your protein: before or after working out?

So after deciding to join "everyone else" and buying protein to have with my workout (whey not the creatine) I heard from different people when I am supposed to drink it. So do you drink yours before or after working out?

My workout fiends (proper spelling) tell me within 20 minutes of the end of your lifts is the period of maximum nutrition uptake. Since those are the folks making gains, they're the ones I listen to. So even if you are following up with some cardio, slam the protein drink as soon as you do your last lift.

Sir, it depends on your desired results. Drink before to bulk up, drink during to fuel longer workouts, drink after to get lean (my goal)

Also, my favorite protein powder is Syntha6 hands down! I have chocolate and I swear they just fill the jug with nestle quick powder and mark the price up! No nasty protein taste and it blends equally well with water or milk (I use almond milk cuz I'm lactose intolerant).
And you're welcome in advance ;-)
