As far as surface grinders are concerned, I think they are an asset; I do not use mine real often (a 6 x 18 B&S Micromaster), but it owes me little as it was a gift from a friend; it has power cross and long feed, automatic oiling and a Neutrofier magnetic control and is deadly accurate. I have fixture for it for threading tool grinding, die chaser sharpening, planer blade re sharpening etc. If you have the room, and the occasional need and can find one for an affordable price, why not. I also have a #1 Norton T&C grinder and use it often for all sorts of small sharpening and cylindrical grinding jobs.
