Default PC 362VSK "Whisper Series" belt sander

I bought the 263VSK tonight. This is marked the "Whisper Series". Is this
some kind of a joke? Will someone please take the marketing weenie that
thought that up and take him outside and beat him to death with the sander?

Crap! This sander is LOUD! My ears are still ringing.

It is slightly louder than my old PC 136 sander which was made decades ago.
If it wasn't for the fact that I doubt there is anything better out there it
would go back. It still might go back to the BORG.

It does seem to track well thanks to the narrow front wheel. I was willing
to buy a choo-choo but there aren't any in stock anywhere that I can find.
Oh well.
