Joe,
I don't have one, but have looked at in the store<g>
It would seem that it would be much easier to control. Typically, belt
sanders do their own thing without much control from the operator...This one
might obey a little better and you should be able to reign it some before it
sands all the way down to the 'quick'.

I have had one for about 6 months and I love it. Nice and light weight
but still plenty of power.
