putting a newt on an equatorial mount is pretty annoying to use. the eyepiece position is in a more comfortable position on a dob. I am assuming your old dob was a non-goto version. a goto dob allows you to enter objects into a handset (after a star alignment) and it will then track. if you were interested in deep sky photography then an equatorial mount will be what you are after.
