The Orion Atlus and the Skywatcher EQ6 are the same beast.. Identical in every way except color...
It is a VERY stable mount, and by far the best bang for buck mount you can go for.
The Celestron CGEM will be released late december/early january, and may give the EQ6 a run for its money, however thats all speculation until real world tests are performed...
Cheers.
