If you like the Jap top handles.... there is a recent offering from Shin&Echo in the 25cc class known as the CS-2511TES or older but same CS-2510TES, lighter than the MS150T with about the same rated power. I have two 'Yamabiko' Makita 231t's which up until this new Echo was 'the lightest gas saw' sold on the planet today. Sadly the Makita 231t is not sold in the US market. While they don't have 35-40cc top handle power, they are about half the weight and run a 10"-12" b/c well. I pick up a 231t more often than a 201t or 200t both of which I own too.
