Dewalt Flip Saw?!?!

For a trim carpenter working out of a truck, this would be fantastic. The price is outrageous though. But considering it's two tools in one, it's not far off.

Let me start to say it is sold for about 450 - 500£ in Denmark, do we sell a lot of those.. Nope! ..But why?.. Well.. For about 5 years ago we did, but now the most costumer have a miltersaw and and will rather buy a tablesaw (dw745) then buying the combi saw. The tablesaw is more accurate and not so heavy to move around.

And some history about it is actually a old ELU product I still see them a round workshops

In 1994, DeWalt took over the German wood working power tool producer ELU

I don't care who makes it but, when you make a combo tool one of the tools will suffer.  Lack of power, ease of use, accuratice you will lose something along the way. Call me a old timer but I prefer a tool for one specific job. When I see stuff like this I think Harbor Freight.
