Default I Need advice on tool purchases

You will end up with a "pretty nice" cut
"maybe" but it may or may not create a
straight board.

A table saw will only create a board with
equal distance between sides "if" one side
is straight and against the fence during the
cut.

Please help me understand this (newbe here). If I rip a board along a fence
on a table saw with a decent blade, I assume I'll end up with a pretty nice
cut. Will the jointer give me something "extra"?

Thanks,
Bill
