As I've posted, during my research, the Ryobi did get a very positive
reveiw (they make three models, and the heavier duty, tilt fence with
steel case was teh one I'm referring to).

The DeWalt has the best (rack and pinion) fence height adjustment, and
the large, ergonomic and convenient button on the underside are great
pluses. However, the RYOBI, as I'm getting used to it, is a graet
contender. It comes with a great steel, rugged case, three bags of
sample biscuits (0, 10, 20), and the fence has the greatest range of
motion on the market. The dust chute I complained about is no worse than
the DeWalt I found: Both have rather obstructed ports withe the cast
metal inside, but the Ryobi comes with a nice dust bag/zippered. Further
more, it is only $119 at Menards.

I've had the Dewalt for several years and I think it's the best thing in
it's price range by a large margin.
