Not biased at all Peter?
Actually, I had looked at the Starlapse system when I was scouting around for a system. Once I factored in the additional expense for the declination axis though, it blew my budget.
Truth be told, the full-kit Astrotrac system I bought blew my budget too, by ~50%, but I got a pier with it too.
The Starlapse was going to blow my budget by more than 100% and I would still need to spend on a very solid tripod or pier.
I will admit it is an impressive system, I just couldn't afford it.
