Ahh i just went through all of this about 2 months ago. I was considering the same mills but also the taig and the sherline. I ended up buying a sherline 2000 because of the larger work surface and adjustablility.
Of the mills your looking at I was going to get the Micro-mark. After working on bridgeports for 7-8 years I didnt think I could deal with the handwheels. When I machine I'm always thinking in thousands of inches so each turn being 50 thousanths makes it easier.
Basically what Deus said about your questions nailed it
Theres some school type textbooks by Walker, Machining Fundementals thats packed with info.
