A few questions

Hi everyone.

I'm looking to get started, and have a couple of questions. From what i've read around here 'dobs' as you call them seem to be the best bang for buck for visual stuff, although I'm still not too sure what to expect. What sort of detail will I get on planets? Will I be able to see the red spot on jupitor, and will it be red? If it helps I guess my budget would be around $700 or so.

The next question is for the other queenslanders out there - are there any good (price, range, service) shops in and around brisbane that you'd recommend? I don't mind buying interstate I guess, but I'd imaging postage & handling could get pretty steep.

Thanks in advance!
