Trying them all
I think you'll be glad you went up that many rungs up the ladder. With the 59cc saw you had, a 70 wasn't a big enough move in my opinion. If you want to fill the gap later, that's always an option when you have plenty of time. You paid half the price of a new one (or less) so set that cash aside for when the right deal on a 50 or 70cc shows up. Nice score!

Yeah, it's a lot of saw for the $$. I'll probab put the difference towards a log splitter. I currently have my eye on the DR rapid fire, but I'm still shopping. I can't seem to find a decent new hydro splitter with the wedge on beam setup.

Yikes. That's nice, but more splitter than I need. I wonder if there are any good used ones out there.

The DR pro model is on sale right now for about $2,000 with the work table. But, it doesn't have a log lift or a 4-way.
Part of me is thinking wait till spring, and maybe someone will want to get rid of a decent used splitter for cheap, in order to scare up some scratch for a lawn mower or something.

Have you tried these guys, site sponsor? Maybe they have a sale coming, or maybe they might have a scratch and dent deal, etc.
