Default Portable drill press/guide vs. Real drill press?

Something like this - http://www.rockler.com/product.cfm?page=2405
while not as accurate as a real drill press, does still get used occasionally
for drilling holes in places where the drill press can't reach, or in things
that are not movable. I would stay away from the things that strap a hand drill
to a plunger mechanism.

You really want a decent drill press though...
