dear friend i understand your problem to decide whitch saw to buy i have both of them radial and a table saw i can tell u both are different because each one is for different job radial saw is for mittering if u need a saw for make miter cuts going thru 45 to 90 degrees the radial saw is your answeri dont recommend this kind of tool for ripping wood because is a little dangerous i almost lost a finger tryng to rip a piece of wood with my saw but if you need to make cuts along the material in rip position the table saw is your answer this saw is not very good for miter cuts so if you are looking for make both kind of works i think u may buy both i did it
