I guess you're making the argument that my comparison is apples and oranges. I'll buy that for dollar. Well, I'll see what they say when I get thew saw back. They received it Monday of this week, and the tech guy told me they would have it for 3 days max. So, I expect that it shipped back out today, which will hopefully put it back here Saturday, or Monday. If I decide to get a ripping blade for this unit, which do you recommend?
