Default General 350 Table Saw

Hi All:

I have been searching high and low for a good table saw in the $400-500
range. I dont want to sell myself short and get anything that would be
underpowered (more power is always better than not enough). I will be
doing lots of rennovation around my home as well as possibly some
cabinet work and have been looking at the Grizzly G044Z, the Delta
TS350 and the Ridgid TS3650 (All new of course and above my price). I
have also seriously considered the Bosche 4000 as the only choice if I
do go for a portable saw again.
I also have the chance to pick up a General 350 about 15 yrs old with a
Paralock fence (all in good shape) for around $500, supposedly only
used in a home shop (as opposed to a commercial environment). No Mitre
or other accessories.

Anything I should consider or look out for? I now this thing is a beast
and am hedging on getting something that will be too heavy. The built
in carriage on the Ridgid is very appealing and may suit my needs.
Thanks.

Eric B
