I love my Nova electronic lathe, but admit all those push buttons are
daunting to my age and eyes.

I can see the value of electronic speed control on a
lathe. Not sure I really see it as being useful on
a drill press - even for metal working, close is good
enough, and if it bogs down that's telling you something,
and "more power" probably isn't the right answer.
