A friend of mine who's a foodie bought a sous vide cooker, and never uses it any more. It doesn't really work well with some foods (like fish), and he thinks the cooking technique has been "over-hyped and over-sold".
Buy a pasta machine, Brian... you'll be eating pasta five times a day when you own one, and I'll come over and help you eat it.
Not sure I like the idea of cooking in water, since most of your flavour for meat and such comes from the caramelization. I also don't like cooking anything in plastic either.

The meat is inside a vacuum seal bag and that is inside the warm water. But you're right, there is no browning for extra flavor. It's supposed to keep the meat moist and tender but not everyone likes it.
I would try to find a friend that has one to borrow before I bought my own.
