SCT versus random orbital sander?

Honestly, that's the one I'm looking at. It may be lacking in some areas, but if I don't plan on going into business stripping paint, I figure I should be okay. :)

I have the Bauer. The thing will take more pressure than the D/A or a grinder. If you go that way, you'll need to keep a light touch, which will build heat. Food for thought.
