At some point I'd like to get a 3-n-1 machine, and was looking at the Smithy like Modelman said above. Tower Hobbies throws in brochures for them in orders.
Biggest reason for a 3-n-1 for me is space, even if I have to frequently switch it back and forth it'll be worth it saving the space of having several different machines.

To be honest, you really do not want a 3 n 1 machine. They just are not great machines. I have worked with several and would never recommend one to anyone even if space was an issue. They just aren't even on the same level as their regular machine counterparts. Save the time and frustration and get the better quality mills and lathes.
