I have ridge vents on my house. I do not like them.

Wind turbines are used in the new construction and are preferrable.

Ridge vents are highly effective for the right type of roof design. Not all houses have enough ridge length to allow for proper ventilation with ridge vents. I do not like the wind turbine type of vents very much. These were very popular when I was growing up but by the time I was an adult, they were falling out of favor due to issues with bearing failing. I personally prefer power turbines, though they coast money to run and have a different set of issues with motors and thermostats going out.
