I've been reading the Table Saws thread in the fabrication forum.

The $300-$600 difference in price you guys are talking about amongst the high end machines is about what I want to spend.

It's first job will be to rip the "last run" of hardwood flooring. It will see occasional use here and there for home improvement. I am not even a "hobby" woodworker.

What do you guys recommend for mere mortals like myself? Any brands over others? Any "features" I should look for?
