choosing telescope

Hi

I am new to this, and asked some advice in another thread, but i should have really started my own.

Anyway, i have been looking into a telescope for a few weeks now, which is more Comlex than i figured.

Anyway, people have recommended scopes like an 8" dobsonian, but others say the celestron nexstar, in different threads.

I want it for stargazing, moon, etc.

I understand the benefit of computerised, so am keen on that.

My research has pointed me to the celestron nexstar 6se, but i am curious on comparisons with scopes like the orion skyquest xt8i intelliscope or skywatcher 8" goto collapsible.

are they all easy to use? am i on the right track?

also, even with postage they seem so much cheaper from the usa...with the celestron and orion both being about $1000 aussi posted?

Any advice appreciated

Thanks
