A CNC router is typically optimized for cutting sheets of material, and often has a larger space in that regard (for example, the ShopBot at the school 2667 works out of cuts 4'x8'x6" of material). They really are very useful, and high quality ones can cut through aluminum in addition to wood, plastics, or foam. They're really quite nice, and often have different use cases than a CNC mill.
