contrrary opinion
Before OP spends a fortune taking some of the advice posted here, I suggest he purchase an inexpensive saw and learn to use it. Experience will guide the acquisition, if it ever becomes wanted, of a larger and more expensive saw and the education will be inexpensive and meanwhile he has a saw that can do a whole lot more than no saw. In addition to the realization of some domestic harmony by not spending a lot on a tool that might be overkill. And should a more capable saw be needed, OP will have some information and experience to inform the purchase. The price of the starter saw will be little compared to the price of a more capable tool which may not be, in the end, necessary.
