I do note that one sees a lot of laser/punch combo machines in catalogs and at trade shows, there's surely some reason for that...
Turret punch requires you to buy tooling (punch and die) to make most shapes and sizes. Once you have the tooling, the punching is quick and easy. Laser can make odd shapes and sizes by programming. Combo is the best of both worlds. Buy tooling for your commonly used holes, and laser the rest.
