I would steer clear of Harbor Freight if this is a tool you'll want years of maintenance free service from. I'm not a fan of today's Craftsman tools either. Delta and Hitachi are both pretty good tools in general. What is your budget? Do you have a Woodcraft store in your area? The staff there are very knowledgeable (not so in most home improvement stores), and can help assess your needs, and recommend the right model. They sell Rikon, Jet and Powermatic, all of which get the Dr. Wood seal of approval. Believe it or not drill presses can have many differing functions, so a knowledgeable sales person can really save you some money and get you the right tool.
