My first thought when reads your initial post was "why do you want a track saw, given your stated usage pattern"I'm mostly convinced that one of the cheap track saws will be right for me. I've not yet chosen which one... that still looks like a minefield.
Were I you, I'd buy a decent circ saw, not drop it, and use a couple of quick clamps to hold a straight edge onto any work I wanted to track cut. Do a first pass at a shallow depth (1-3mm) before making it deeper, to help avoid the surface breaking out.. If you're cutting woods with a thin blade, make several runs with progressively deeper depths to avoid a wandering cut
