Air Compressors

Anyone know anything about air compressors?

I'm giving my Sears compressor that has worked great, though a little small, for several years to a friend. It's this one here: http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_00916778000P


I need to get something that will safely operate a grinder, cut-off wheel and blast cabinet, as well as an HPLV spray gun.

I've found a few on CL, but like the idea of a warrantee, especially after seeing some of the reviews on Sears' larger models. I found this one here:

http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=productDetail&productId=138336-71025-KLA3706056&detail=cr&lpage=none

it's at the end of my budget, but it's new, and has a solid cfm for the work I need to do.

Thoughts?

found this one on CL, it's pretty much new. When I went to home depot to check it out, they've got 2 identical compressors, except one has vertical pistons and the other has a V piston arrangement. this one has vertical. is one better than the other?
