I know you are, but I’m not! If I had my way these things would have been shot, smashed with a sledge, set on fire and then urinated upon to show dominance to the other concrete saws

Or there's this...not sure about the quality. Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/322025979159

So what is the preferred bar/chain combo for a mildly warmed up 288xp Lite? I see that Acres says it handles up to 36” stock. I have an 8 pin 3/8 rim on its way and from what I have read 28” is pretty ideal. This saw is going to be the “big dog” and will most likely see less use than the others saws he has.

I like a 24 or 28. Sharpening anything longer really sucks.
