Default HVLP Recommendations?

Looking to upgrade my older Rockler HVLP spray gun outfit similar to this
one.
http://www.amazon.com/HVLP-ELECTRIC-SPRAY-GUN-
OUTFIT/dp/B001LNLY32/ref=pd_sbs_auto_2

Looking for something moderately priced. Looked at the Campbell
Hausfeld,Earlex,Fuji. Are there others units I'm not considering or finding
from my searches through Google?
Not liking what I'm reading about the CH not enough pressure to push latex
and the Earlex seems to be what I have now. The Fuji seems like a nice unit
for around 500.00 plus.
Any suggestions? Like to stay within the 500.00 range or less. I know you
get what you pay for and I'd be willing to pay more since I will be using
this for work purpose
Thanks,
Rich

I have only used Fuji. I am pleased with the results. What more can I say.

Just a suggestion but consider http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605
_00916472000P?prdNo=1&blockNo=1&blockType=G1 and
http://www.tcpglobal.com/spraygundepot/itemdetail.aspx?
itemno=TCP+G7000, add
http://www.tcpglobal.com/spraygundepot/itemdetail.aspx?
itemno=TCP+P6600-20,
http://www.tcpglobal.com/spraygundepot/itemdetail.aspx?
itemno=TCP+P6600-25, and a couple of
http://www.tcpglobal.com/spraygundepot/itemdetail.aspx?
itemno=TCP+AR8062 and you're around your 500 dollar mark with a system
that will spray just about anything and run air tools besides.

Note--the Sears compressor will be fine for painting cabinets and the
like--mine's smaller and does fine--if you're doing houses you'll want a
bigger one, but if you're shooting houses in latex you should look at
airless anyway.

No not painting houses. Used mostly for cabinets. Need something portable.

What are the advantages or disadvantages of Gravity Fed Guns. I have only
used the standard guns. Seems the Gravity Guns hold less paint.
