download signblazer from the uscutter support site to try you hand at designing.  as for which cutter is better - IMO it's a toss up until you get to the copam series.  the Laserpoint has an option for manually doing contour cutting (not automatic like the roland and graphtecs).  You will also need vinyl (stick to Oracal for best results and some application tape - you will find down the road you will get a cutting mat and other goodies but to get started just the cutter, tape and vinyl

well Dakota already got you on the right track, the only thing i would add is Squeegee and Weeding tool.
and as far as the cutter as she said Pcut and Laserpoint main difference is that one contour cuts (laserpoint) the other does not (PCut).
