Hehheh sorry! I agree with the others though on aperture. There's no substitute when it comes to deep sky. A 90mm is quite small. It's only a step up from a 60mm. The only time a little refractor like that may be better than a larger scope is with a wide field eyepiece and something large like comets. In fact my best views of comets have been through small refractors. On high power though, they suck! The images are dim and colourful. Bring back any memories? (60mm wobbleotronic refractor?)
