How about you other 55 and 75 owners? What's your ripping quotient?

I have a protool (made by festool) non-plunge saw with riving knife.
It's become my main saw (with tracks and an older MFT) for everything
including ripping. I'm one of those people without a table saw though. I
do a lot of plywood so my ripping solid timber is probably more like
10%. It'd be nice if festool was better at handling rips of long narrow
pieces - their system really requires support pieces and the workpiece
clamped to a surface. (in that application I think the eurekazone system
has an edge with it's dual clamping tracks underneath.
