Tools: New saw recommendations

My small contractor's style table saw died today. Part of me went 'damn!' while most of me went 'Yay, I can get a better one!'

Can anyone recommend a smallish saw that they really like? I see that Rob Macks likes the Dewalt DWE7480, so that is at the top of my list for now.

Mostly I will use it for ripping strips and other light work.

Thanks for any suggestions.
