Hello from qld, Sw or Orion

Hello all.
I thought I'd jump into some telescopic adventures while i continue to heal.
I broke Both my legs last year and am getting around on a walkingstick but still
having issues...anyway, enough poor me...

I'd like some reasoned input on the difference between the Skywatcher 12 Goto
anf the Orion xt12g.
Obviously one is collapsible tube, one solid. Both SynSync.

The orion looks to have a better Dualspeed Focuser, but to my newb research, worse
included eyepieces. I have no idea about mirror diffs, chime in if ya know.

Orion is $2000. atm and the Skywatcher $2300


3 hunj is an eyepiece or 2, or cheap kit with filters and a few sizes to get the viewing underway.

Yes im a bit broken, but am used to carrying chainsaws up steep hills and the like so not worried 'bout moving a Lil' 12inch around.

Vision or value between the two?

Which one and why please my new friends.

P.S. i found Giza Capstone. It is an artifact of perspective. It and allseeingeye say same thing... LINEAR PERSPECTIVE to and of the Vanishing Point of human Perception.
Look at them not as pyramids but Roads streching away...the CAPSTONE isnt missing. Its the Vanishing Point. Where the railway lines disappear before they touch. Allseeingeye...is just graffiti OVER the sun above a Road. No pyramid there whatsoever...
