Not that it really matters,just saw a free chain saw sharpening class put on by a a tree group in the paper. I guess they do it every year, 100 turned out last year. Door prized too and a little bit of how to take care of your saw is talked about too.
Not hard to hand sharpen a saw. If I could show you you would get it it no time with some practice.

A search of the forum will cough up some previous thread(s) on this.

But it is your money, however I'd suggest in the long run you will be better off to learn hand filing (and learning to saw without the blade/chain dropping into the dirt). It happens, but some just saw that way as habit.
