As long as it isn't alcohol

I remember when I first got my 2188, it about kicked my butt cutting a 34" oak down. It would grab the uncut wood, then the chips on the other side of the bar and cycle between them throwing me back and forth.

I thought it looked weird like the handle hinge is too high up to easily work a brake. What would a spring handle do? Push your hand back a little? How does that save your arm or face from a spinning chain?

Here's one with a chain brake, must be a very late model. That's what threw me off at first until I found this picture. http://www.acresinternet.com/cscc.nsf/ed1d619968136da688256af40002b8f7/4dee9715a9e84b3988256c1a0004d086?OpenDocument

I try not to be worldly and attached to things, as I see it, it was meant to be used, so don't just look at it, use it. But with the possibility of having a new one, I'd almost feel bad to get it dirty. I might want to trade for a new 880, but who knows, I don't even have it yet. What could the...

Haha, it's about time I get a good find, even if I have to pay for it. Hopefully it turns out good and all...and mine

EDIT: Looks like I answered my own question, I just found a similar picture here (the newest looking one): http://www.acresinternet.com/cscc.nsf/ed1d619968136da688256af40002b8f7/4dee9715a9e84b3988256c1a0004d086?OpenDocument I found a really modern looking 090AV online for $1000, new condition...
