OK, who knows about powertools
damn, i was leaning towards the dewalt set at costco. dammit.
thanks for all the replies guys. yeah, i am doing a little home improvement, got a bunch of holes to drill and some small wood to cut and shelves and so on.
on a side note:
i have position my desk at an akward position. now my powerstrip is difficult to get to so i have thing connected to the brick(like hard drives, chargers and such). my question now is if i disconnect my appliance, but leave the plug in the strip the light on the brick stays on as if it is drawing power even though nothing is plugged into it. how much power is it actually drawing, enough that it is wasteful, i'd say if it is costing me $15 a month in electricity by just being plugged in, should i find a way to reposition it. damn, that'll be tough.

If you are looking cheaper than dewalt, try ryobi. home depot has them and they have the "one" system that uses the same battery for all their cordless line. i have done alot of stuff around the house and thses tools are well worth the money, epecially at more than half of dewalt and milwaukee.
