RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] What router to get?

Would both of you, Chris and Doug think that the 3.25hp Porter Cable
be a good choice. The range is only 10k to 21k in 5 steps but I have heard
that it holds its speed very good even using a big bit. But that is all I
know of it and I can get a good price $299 on a 7539.
Or is the Bosch listed below better it is cheaper.

I will add that it is the quietest conventional 2 hp router I have ever had.
Well, that is until you get her "barkin" in a chunk of material !

And it does a very good job at maintaining rpm as it runs into different
densitys like wood knots and what nots........
