Yep, I have a basement shop, and I yearn for more room, EASY ACCESS (!), and plenty of natural light.
Regarding outlets, I went nuts on my shop, installed a subpanel in the shop, so I have plenty of 110V-20A circuits, and also several 220V circuits.
Recommendation:
If you run 20A circuits in a new shop, run two circuits to the same quad box(es), and use different color outlets to identify two separate circuits. That way, you can plug a saw in one circuit, and a shop vac in another, and not trip the breakers! I'm about to rewire mine, so I do not have cords running across the floor to different circuits.
Of course, you could also install a dust collection system, but I'm sure there are plenty of reasons to have dual circuits in close proximity.
