I have to agree. He could have done this:

and this:

The miter saw is a bit more, but it's 10" and probably a lot better
than the craftsman. I have an older version of this miter saw. It's
not great, but it does the job.
Well, lets see... my grinder is 8" rather than 6", it has a slower
bottom speed, and a more powerful motor; all for $8 less. Yeah, I think I
pick the better one. (Sears has one identical to the Delta 6" for $50.)
The Delta miter saw is twice the price and too large for what wanted.
Hmm. I think I chose correctly.
You guys are just jealous because you don't get gloats. (I bought a $500
leaf blower off craigslist for $50 last week. Kinda old, but starts on
the first pull. Anyone want to try to tear that one down? Or maybe the
parachute I bought at a garage sale for $18 and sold on ebay for $360? Or
the 200bf of oak I bought on ebay for $1. Or the exercise machine I found
in the street waiting for trash pickup that I sold on ebay for $450?)
