Have we discussed drills?

Now that I have half a dozen spring projects behind me and struggling with dull, random drills I'm looking to do something about my drill bit issues. I looked on line for reviews, but I can't help thinking the review sites are trying to sell me something.

I bought a set of DeWalt drills that I'm really disappointed in. The cutting edges don't just get dull, they break off. But they get good reviews.

Any suggestions for good home shop drills?

I have a few pounds of miscellaneous old high speed steel drills in sizes up to 1/2" that are dull. I'm thinking sharpening those might be the way to go instead of buying new. Anyone have a Drill Doctor, a good drill sharpening technique, or another drill sharpener?
