Answer 1

It depends on exactly what you want to do.  There are only 2 different machines.  The original Cricut came out first and needs 6 x 12 paper.  You can buy it pre-cut or you can just cut standard card stock sheets in half.  This machine is quite portable.

The new Cricut Expressions will allow you to cut 12 x 12 cardstock or even up to 12 x 24.  This machine also allows you to do a few extras.  Since it cuts such large format paper, it does take up quite a bit of space.

I would recommend the Expressions.  If you visit the Cricut.com messageboard, you will see that the overwhelming majority of users say to get the bigger machine.

P.S. These machines are currently on sale at http://www.scrap-hut.com.  This site has the lowest prices in Canada on scrapbooking supplies.
