Poulan used to make good saws, the 335 was a superior machine to the 290/029. It's marketing that sells the 290, weee pecker people see an ad with a hardcore logger type. The one I've seen is the guy in the Ben Davis shirt with a tin of chew on a island in Alaska. He's bragging on his 066.
Mr. TicTac heads to his Stihl dealer to buy an image, til he finds out it's to heavey and costs $1200. On the way to the door he spots the 290, like seeing women on the lake.....looks good from far but far from good. So he brings this rattletrap home and now he's a big tuff logger.... Stihl sold.

Marco,
It must be an ...... uh ..... interesting life if you have stats on saw buyer's johnson sizes by brand. I'm sure that information is useful to you.

a buddy who owns a parts store runs linux. he tells me that he routinely runs without a reboot for weeks. how many windows users can say that.

funny joat.
what is your serious rebuttle to marco's post?
he does have a valid point, no?
yup, the closer to the living room the 290's storage spot is the smaller the Johnson. I know of one guy kept his 290 on a shelf behind the couch, poor fella.
Marco,
Well, you've caused me to reconsider carrying my 029 with me everywhere I go.
Peace,
Joat

Mac OSX has a Unix core and Linux is essentially an off shoot of Unix.
A Mac guru can do amazing things with a Mac, just like a Linux guy can. The difference is in the polished Mac GUI that allows beginners to use and enjoy them also.....A genius idea that Linux has apparently not bothered with.
I run Linux. But I have Windows XP on the work computers (for compatibility). XP over the months gets slower and slower and slower...but my Linux box's speed hasn't changed since the day I installed it.
Nah, Linux has plenty of eye candy too...you just have to get the right "distro" if you want to easily enable it.
VM and Marco,
Now, as a consumer, not as a pro, you get a nice, warm, fuzzy feeling after buying into the brand. It's a "safe" purchases. In my business, there was once a saying, "No one ever got fired for buying IBM".
Thanks for your interest and attention,
Joat
on occasion your posts indicate the presence of an intellect and persona that is... well, rather unexpected on a chain saw forum.
might i ask, what do you do for a living joat?
(other Than psychiatry and ministry)

interesting. you remind me of a man named Miles A. he is an interesting cat too.VM,
I've been in the information systems (computer software) business since 1968. I'm currently a self-employed consultant.

FC,
Don't worry. I won't analyze you, condemn you to h&ll, or reveal any information about you.
I remain,

if i could buy a car similar to a vette, that outperformed a vette for less money than a vette. i'd buy that car before the vette.
am i alone?

339.00, outragously too cheap............................
In this "economy" nothing is TOO cheap. My 5100 has over 2 years in service and IS the reason when I pick up an 80cc saw it WILL be the 7900.
When I came here 2.5 years ago the little 5100 was just starting to have a following. I can see now that they are worrying some in the buisness. 550,000 units aint chump change, still Stihl is # 1. But you all can remember when GM was THE largest corporation in the world.
When those upstart little Toyotas and Hondas first hit the shore do you really think GM even gave them a second look? We all looked over our 5 foot long hoods and snickered at the little cheap cracker boxes.
When you're # 1 the only possible move is..................................
