Default Cutting devices

I am confused about the various cutting devices such as Go, Accuquilt, Silhouette and so on. When you use these devices do you precut your fabric to a specific size before it is placed in the device to cut your shapes? What I'm confused about is cutting WOF strips. When you want a large # of one die size, such as a hexes in 3" size' can you do one size quantity at a time? The ads show several sizes on the same die board. Do you HAVE to do multiple sizes at the same time?

Finally they seem so expensive with questionable value to me. I am the queen of buying stuff then rarely using it. DH has asked me several times if I'd like one, but am afraid it would be yet another dust catcher for me. BTW I don't mind cutting with a rotary cutter and do not have physical issues that limit what I can cut myself. Would love to hear thoughts from you.
