    And has a roughly equivalent work envelope (longer X, shorter Y), a slower spindle (4K vs 6K - unless you pay an extra $3200 for 6K), slower rapids (200 IPM vs 350-500 IPM), and, with a 7.5HP spindle, will be difficult to operate on household wiring, assuming you could even get it into your house, given that it's almost 9 feet high, 6 feet deep, and 10 feet long....
