I was told the 461 is to be out in a few months, and to start buying 460's if you want one.

I was told that they probably wouldn't replace the 460 until the later part of 08'

, because the 372xp would beat it in several ways.......:hmm3grin2orange: :hmm3grin2orange:

Not really, I just speculated over the fact that they never offered the 440 here, in light of the dozens of 372 vs. 440 vs. 460 treads here at AS, a few years ago - the 440 mostly ended up as the "also-ran".......:greenchainsaw:

Shall we do a poll??? I think so, let's see what AS thinks
I can understand the price, weight, ergonomic issue and fair enough too... the user has to be able to afford it and be comfortable with the tool for the duration. It's an individuals preference.
Having said that: we have 'real' trees here in NZ too, but loggers are generally cutting 20-25 yr old Pinus Radiata in plantations. It is a soft wood, yet most here, I believe use an 066 with 25" bar.
Before anyone says 'told you so', both the Stihl's and Husqy's are bought by the gangs in bulk all over this country. They are the main players here. It has more to do with marketing and discounts I think. So it does not mean other 'lesser' [sales volume] brands are not their equal.
But for the poll; my vote is for the 2095 - that's my preference.
