I don't think you can go wrong with a pro saw from Sthil, Husky, or Echo (maybe Echo isn't a pro saw, who cares.). I have a Jonsered 2172 at work and that saw rips, I think it's the same as a husky 372 x-torque. I'm going to buy an Echo CS-7310 here pretty soon. I have had good experiences with Echo and I'm pissed at Husky for dropping Jonsered. If you aren't running the saw everyday get the echo and save some money.

Also if you want to run a 36" bar you might want a 90cc. If you are going to bury a 36" in big trees then get a 90cc. If you just don't want to bend over as far bucking logs then a 36" would run alright on a 70cc. Or if you're just concerned about the occasional big tree, just run a 28" and cut from either side.
