Aside from safety, what do you see as nicer about the sawstop? I love my Powermatic 66, they can pry it from my cold, dead hands :)

I like the switch, the fence, and the surface finish of the table quite a bit. Small ergonomic changes that seem nice. I used to have a powermatic 66 and loved it too. Given the choice of buying a new saw, though, I wouldn't buy the powermatic just because of the safety.

Regarding cold, dead hands, is that before or after amputation by tablesaw? /s
