Get a cisco they are the best  ;)

RetroACTIVE:

How much do you plan on using it... you don't need to worry about variable speed if you aren't going to be cutting many different kinds of material...

For basic use (ie. building an arcade cabinet) 1 speed is good enough...

Get the variable speed if you think your are going to be doing all kinds of woodworking.

Dewalt = good, Craftsman=bad, PorterCable=good

I'm not a big Craftsman power tool fan... hand tools you bet..

vader:

Honestly.....I may use this 5-10 hours a month.  Heck...I won't even upack it for 7 months till I move, but  I will be setting up a shop and want to start collecting the tools now...already have the table saw, nailer, and mitre saw....

What's wrong with Craftsman power tools out of curiosity?  I've been nothing but happy with my 19.2 volt cordless set.
