Just be mindful that you're deciding between two wicked coffee machines that are intended to get you the best out of good freshly roasted beans.
If you're going to brew anything pre-ground, or pre-roasted, (aka anything from a supermarket), you're better off buying an el cheapo machine, since the precise 200* brewing temp will be the least of your worries.
It would be analogous to buying a Ferrari and then filling it up with Kerosene and wondering why it still feels like you're driving a Lada.
That said, either of those with good recently roasted beans is going to be a great cup. I stick with a french press since I rarely need to brew more than 6 cups at a time and its not worth having an extra appliance taking up space.
