I need some air compressor schooling

Wow lots of replies, I like it! I'll admit I don't know as much about them as I should. Mainly impact, air ratchet, and the like. OCCASIONALLY I use it for small paint and will be using a DA a bit, but I'm willing to compromise on performance of those since it won't be often at all.

I'd love a 60 gal, but I don't want to do it since I'm planning to move in the next year or so (and will have a separate garage where I don't have to worry about 60 gal compressors and such taking up my parking space).

Budget is open, but I'd like to keep it down as this one will likely be replaced in the next few years.
