I disagree about the statement that small refractors are near useless.
My Takahashi FS-60c provides wonderful views of the planets and sweeping views of the Milky Way and the Magellanic Clouds and the brighter DSOs. In terms of Jupiter and Saturn it can handle near 200x without image degradation. It is literally like a lightly built short person who has been on steroids.
The Orion 80ED provided immense value when it appeared and does go deeper in accordance with its aperture.
