Alex, I agree with you 100%. Every Intes I have used has been essentially perfect.
I used Matt's former TEC Mak - it was absolutely perfect, and ZERO shift as far as I could tell. It had a Mitutoyo micrometer focuser!!!!!
I have used Mewlons, and honestly disliked them all. Sorry, my opinion. I just don't gel with them, even being a Takahashi nut.
I have used a Tak CN212, and am restoring one for Le Froggy right now, and they are SUPERB - plus you can convert from Cassegrain to Newtonian, making them rather unique. The optics on those are every bit as good as the Intes.
