I have the little Delta. I got it for a song and I use it alot. I also have a Laguna 16 inch so it isn't like I don't have a choice. It is a decent little machine.

I could cry for the time I've wasted, but thats a waste of time and tears.

I had a 9" Ryobi bandsaw for a few years. I made a snap decision to purchase it for an urgent non-woodworking project. Paid $100, sold it for $50, and I'd say I got my money's worth. It was handy to have around for curve cutting, ripping pen blanks, etc.
However, I think the real advantage of a bandsaw in the wood shop is resawing, and the benchtop saws are mostly limited to 3 or 4" of vertical capacity. I now have a 14" saw with riser block, and it's a great improvement. A buddy of mine has the Grizzly G0555 saw and is quite pleased with it.
