Buffer Questions

Not too sure about that, but the reliability shouldn't be MUCH worse theoretically than a PC. I have both and not only is the Griots faster, but at equivalent speeds it's less painful to use as it vibrates less.

 

Ditto ... more powerful and less vibration. The nice warranty is a plus. I own both an XP and Griots. The Griots is the go-to machine and the XP is the backup just in case. Don't waste your money on the extended cord version. The cord gets all tangled up and it's a pain to deal with.
