Thanks all
With all posts my choice gets more and more difficult but it's very very
interesting ;-)

Get the lathe. Learn to use it. Then get a mill. Tools are good.

Now the big question..is whether you should get a horizontal or
vertical mill.

No question - get a H/V if you can find one. If you can't find a H/V
probably go for a V first since it's a bit more intuitive and I think
tool changes are faster. Still look for a H and dividing head after for
cutting gears and similar.
