Now that's normal. Personally, I'm a Makita man. It's teal, or nothin at all. I'd actually prefer to be a Milwaukee guy, there's something about the name & lightning bolt logo that look cool to me. But my first power tool was a Makita cordless, & I just went from there. My brother in law the contractor uses DeWalt. Which, I think is funny, because DeWalt is a spin-off of Black & Decker, who thought their brand was more assocaited with homeowners & amateurs (it was, & therefore contractors wouldn't buy it). Now DeWalt is huge with contractors. Go figure.
Same goes for stereo equipment. I like Yamaha components & Klipsch speakers. I could never buy anything else. That would be totally amateur. Because I'm all pro and all :silly: Still, it makes me feel good.
