Yes, the RapidTurn is rather tight on my 770. However, with the 1100 you have to reprogram the VFD to change from mill mode to RapidTurn mode. This is not required on the 770.
Poly-V is quieter than the link belt on the 1100 (at least that is my understanding)
Higher spindle speed is great if you use small cutters. You could get the high speed spindle for the 1100 but changeover is a pain.
A larger work envelope is always good to do large parts or to run multiples for production.
Just a few thoughts...
