Circuits Assembly Magazine, www.circuitsassembly.com, has an annual
comparison guide on its website.  I believe the document is in .pdf format
that can be downloaded or viewed on-line.  It gives side by side comparisons
of all the machines from placement speed to feeder changeover time,
including some aspects that you may not think of.

I'm in the process of looking for new equipment and was wondering if
there are any online resources such as checklists or evaluation guides
for features, etc. to use when comparing machines.
