A co-worker asked my opinion of the current worksite table saws out there. He
mentioned that he had seen the Bosch 4000 at Cosco along with the Dewalt 744.
He said he was leaning towards the Bosch 4000 because it had a 4HP motor.
"What? No, way!" I told him, then he proceeded to show me Bosch's web site
where in fact they claim:

* Powerful 15 Amp, 4.4 HP max. tool output - Power to tackle any material

OK, how are they claiming to get 4.4 HP out of this thing on 115v?

That quite a bit, like running three toasters at the same time. I'd
much rather have a quality fence and 1 HP, than a so-so fence and 4.4
HP.
