What sprayer should I get

I am going to spray mostly cabinets. MDF, latex paint. I will use the sprayer to do some bigger jobs. Like a fence. Any indoor painting of walls trim ect. I sub out. I have looked at a HVLP, because of the fine finish work. Any input would be great.

graco 390 or 395. I like the graco's much better than the comparable titan.

I just bought the FT500.

Thanks for all the advice. I just bought the FT500 at Sherwin Williams. Airless, .60 gpm, 1.2 HP. Floor model, got it for $725. I feel like it was a good deal. Thanks for the help.
