Hi Ken, I can't claim to be unbiased exactly, but I do have an eclectic mix of celestron and meade gear, with celestron OTA coupled with Meade electric focusser and often as not mounted on a mead LXD75 mount.

My humble experience is that is someone wants something that reasonably intuitive to use then Meade will have the advantage over celestron - their software to me is excellent. On OTA's all I've read suggests that Celstron still has an edge, though some of the images produced by 1ponders and by Lester show meade can mix it up.

reckon Meade is probably the way to go for the gentlemen in question.

cheers,
