I was at Northern Tools today trying to buy an electric angle grinder. They told me they were getting out of the DeWalt and Milwaukee and only offering their house brand.

This is bad news in my opinion.

The (short term) good news is that in this particular store they were selling off thier Milwaukees and I got a heavy-duty 4.5" grinder for about 1/2 price ($50, model 6148).

They had other Milwaukees marked down similarly. I don't know how long they have been selling off these, but at this store, it looked like near the end.
