Hi everyone,
I just joined this great forum after months just lurking around and getting info for my first telescope.
I have always been fascinated with astronomy, reading all I can about the planets from my world book encyclopedia and publications... listining to Star Stuff on the radio.
I've been to the Sydney observatory numerous times and I just thought lately it was time to buy myself a telescope.
After searching around and reading this great forum I decided to go to Andrews Communications and picked myself a 6" GSO Dobsonian. I have read that a 8" should be the minimum but I do not have alot of room at home and it does seem quite heavy, but I am happy with the purchase.
I hope to talk with many of you with my noob questions

and hopefully even meet some of you's.
Lawrence
