I bought a cheap ass orbital polisher that has 2 handles, it will wear you out just lifting it, and it really doesn't get the wax off as good as I can by some elbow grease.

I dread waxing, but it has to be done. And a good job won't leave those dreaded swirl marks.. I may look into that porter cable one though. It looks pretty easy to handle.

I used to keep my car spotless, but after 4 years it's getting harder to do..
So, right now, do you still do it by hand? If you do get that Porter, could you post back here, or send me an PM, and just let me know what you think of it? Assuming I haven't gotten one before hand.
