It really depends in the context of what you're saying. "Half empty" could be positive or negative, as could "Half Full". For example, you have an empty glass. It then gets filled halfway to water. You would say, "Oh, now it's only half empty!". The opposite of this could be having a full glass, of which half is drained. "Oh, now it's only half full".
Those who say it is neither or say it doesn't exist are just looking for attention. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Personally, I went for half-empty, as it is the one I most commonly use. I don't belive it has reflections on optimisim or pessimism.
