Thanks again everyone. I've been researching for a bit tonight. Finding it a pretty hard choice between the CPC800 and the Evolution 8.
As of this moment, I'm leaning towards the CPC800 because it has the stronger mount and I have no need for the wifi on the Evo 8 at all. Would rather use the remote.
But is one any better, or easier to modify/upgrade for astrophotography, or are they both about the same in that regard as well?

Trying to find things to lean one way or the other, and I would like to try out some AP in the future.
