No fuzz, I understood completely what you were saying. I was referring to the others earlier in the thread that want to start throwing 50cc saws against the 40's. For some reason when someone asks about a certain size saw, there are always those who immediately suggest 10cc bigger. Like the OP here, sometimes there is a $$ limit, he already picked where he feels comfortable, and what his needs are. Now he is asking if it is a good product, not what is a bigger, better, more expensive saw. I really think these little saws have a place in the lineup. Next, it would behoove some around here to listen to those that have run a particular saw that is in question, versus just reading specs and making assumptions. It's no different than me saying an 880 is junk compared to a 3120. I've never run an 880, only a 3120, so I am not going to have an valid view of which is the better saw. I can't give an opinion on something I've never run. Sure we can all look at specs, but the way a tool feels in the hands can't be out on a spec sheet. Also, a dyno number is exactly that, a hp reading at a certain rpm. It doesn't always mirror how an engine performs in real live conditions. Pull an engine down a little past the tested rpm, one may not pull as good, one may hang right in there, making one feel stronger than the other.
I guess what I am getting at is, read what the owners have to say about a saw, not the spec reciters. Before buying the 421, I read quite a few posts on this site to see what the guys that owned them had to say. Turns out, I agree with all the good reviews.
