Stihl MS251 vs. Echo or Husky Equivalent?

[motoguy]

I just pulled the trigger on a CS501 on eBay. I thought I was going to end up with a 261, but I'm just not a fan of the electronic doohickeys on a saw. I like things I can remove/replace if needed. I like the idea of the Echos being quality pro saws, without the electronics.

I have a CS620PW on the way as well. I was looking at the 261 and 362 at the local Stihl dealer earlier this week.
