I have two different Stihl saws - the MS250c and the MS260. The 250 has a
16" bar and the 260 has a 20" bar. Both are fantastic saws. Both start
easily, although the 250 is the easiest. The 260 starts relatively easy as
well, but the smaller 250 is really easy. The 250 is quite light and easy
to handle, and is in your price range, probably ideally suited for what
you described.

Excellent advise. I bought the FarmBoss and while it is a
cuttin-one-of-'em the weight will eventually give you forearms like Popeye.
