Hi again,

Back on the subject of the condo, I'm sorely lacking in power tools and 
for what needs to get done (rip up and replace some laminate flooring, 
redo a lot of the
base moulding, some other misc. work), and was trying to figure out what 
kind saw I should get - I've got all the usual suspects (hand saws, 
circular saw, several jigsaws, etc. but there seemed like there was 
enough work involved to justify getting something to do the mitering, 
cut laminate flooring, etc.  I was thinking either a small table saw or
one of those whizzy sliding compound miter saws

Which would you choose?

A related question is about horrible freight tools.  I see they have a 
sliding compound miter saw that they regularly put on sale cheap - had 
anybody had any
experience with these - are they worth a darn?

Thanks,

rkg
