Thanks again: so basically I should get a good "seeing" scope to start with (a dob?), and when money allows, move up to a eq mount?
In which case, should I get a decent ota on a dob and then replace the dob with an eq down the track, or simply buy an entirely new setup? This is already looking expensive... but I take your point that a "seeing" scope and an imaging scope are generally different, and in my beginners price range there would not be one which does both.
And I really do want something portable: the easier to carry around and setup the more use I'll have of it. Our house is already too full for a set-up telescope a stand around; it will have to live in a box when not in use.
