I have had extensive experience with SW dobs, both collapsible and solid,
and can safely say that the collapsibles hold collimation as well as the
solid tubes do; seems counter-intuitive, but the collapsing mechanism is
built like a brick outhouse. There is the added benefit [that I'm getting
tired of pointing out] of being able to use SW dobs for prime focus imaging,
which most other dobs/newts don't allow.
