All purpose??? :s
It's kind of difficult to tell you that. I'd say that the 18-200mm is quite impressive, but... it depends on the use.
In one hand, having only one lens like 18-200mm means that you don't have to carry any other lenses and you don't have to change them. But, it's not a fast lens: 3,5-5,6. So it just depends on how much you will ask of the lens. If you just need that versatility, go for them. If not:
17-55 f/2.8 (it has that max aperture through all the lens)
70-200 f/2.8
Those lens cover the same fields... but with 2.8 max aperture... much faster.
I would also recomend if money's not a problem... the 50mm f/1.4 (or 1.8) and the 85mm f/1.4. Those are the best autofocus lenses from nikon, and also almost in the market.
Hope to be helpful,

I would tell you to buy the 50mm f/1.2 which is the fastest lens ever made, but I've never tried it and it's a manual lens... and I don't know if the autofocus of the D200 will work on it.
