Consider another alternative -- for small to medium size projects, a good
quality saber saw can do most things a circular saw can, and can make curvy
cuts too, and is generally easier to handle and less dangerous. Must be good
quality, though, for example a Bosch.

That gets a vote from here, too. I reach for my Bosch jig saw far more often
than the circular saw. Probably different if I were framing houses. And I'd
take a cheap table saw any day over a hand circular saw for most home repair
stuff.
