The dob vs EQ issue is a matter of personal preference. As this is a beginners forum area, and it is hard to know the level of knowledge of the OP, I though a little advice may be in order. I have used both EQ and dobs mounts and for visual use, in my opinion, dobs win. I know others that happily use an EQ.
Personally I don't find pushing a well made dob to difficult. Anyway most of the time once I have found an object, 3 or 4 minutes of observing is enough so not too much nudging is needed.
As long as the OP is aware of the mounts and the options, it is all good!!
