I too got the Bostich ... I like the round magazine much better than the stick. I've had the N88 for about 7 years now ... got it when they were pretty new .. during one of the asnnual Hardware/Woodworking shows in Edmonton.
I've now built my shop, a shed addition to the garage, and 2 horse shelters here in Michigan and a huge deck, shed enclosure for the hot tub and several other projects back in Alberta.
While, at times, I envy the guys with the non-pnerumatic setups .... this one has been pretty good to me and I can attest I've certainly never babied it.
I also like my Porter-Cable roofing nailer a lot too ....
