Help me pick a chainsaw

Hello. I'm looking for advice on which chainsaw to buy. I have my Dad's stihl 026 that I like, but I need to fix it. In the meantime I'd like to get another saw so I can always have one that works.

I get about 80 hrs. a year of work for folks, cutting down small/medium trees and brush. I cut a cord of firewood a year, and I do some trailwork, bog bridges and such. So I'm not a pro, but I probably use a saw more than the average homeowner. I'd like the power to take down a decent sized tree, but won't be doing that very often.

Any opinions on which saw would be good for me? Stihl or Husky preferred.
