I'd advise you to buy the scope you think you might like best second hand, so that you can sell it without losing a lot of value if you change your mind. An 8" computerized SCT is super convenient, a 16" dob gives much brighter images. Portability reduces considerably once you go larger than a 12" truss dob.
I've owned all sorts including a 16" Lightbridge: in the end portability and storage issues led me back to a C11 Edge as the best compromise large scope for my circumstances and preferences but everyone is different.
