Well, Im a bit biased towards a 7901 or 6401 conversion, because blue saws cut faster. Y'know.
On a serious note, the 7900 is the saw to own. But ive got the dealer support should I need parts.
Stay away from the 441. Its overweight, bulky, underpowered (compared to 7900, 460, 372), next to unmodifyable... I wouldnt purchase one with such better saws availiable. Stratochaged motor < Normal 2 stroke.
On that note, if youre set on stihl go for a 460.
No realistic other option, unless your thinking 660 or 880.
Used 440 is an honorable mention.
