Working on porting a 440 right now, looks like it has good potential. I havent herd of anyone getting big gains out of the 575 or 441 and both these have more technical problems to work arround.

I had a perfect 044 and traded it for a 441. I guess I am a new technology guy and like the new stuff. I have run a 440 at work and they are great saws, but I know one thing for sure the 441 is smoooooooooth and with a 20" bar it's cutting speed is very impressive. I am not knocking anybody's saw, just telling you where I am coming from. If I could I would have one of each saw that Stihl, Husky, Dolmar and Shindiawa makes!

i have heard of a few guys that have the 575xp and they said they have a lot of problems. I would either go with the 440, 441 or the husky372xp just my two cents but good luck on your decisions
