Being a classics nut, i must get an old orange tube C8 one day just for giggles. It's fun reading the CN threads on SCT's about how many incarnation of one type of scope guys will go through before they get one that's good enough to keep (the Dynamax thread is amusing, as is the C14 thread). I wish I had grabbed Mental's C8 when he offered it but I was too late.
Good luck with the Edge Glen. Thinking back on the VC200L, I think your choice was wise too. The VC really is a PITA to get right - easily sometimes 2 hrs if imaging. I wouldn't want another closed tube design again though (like the Edge or Mak) - the dew problem was always horrible with the Mak I had, and that was using dew heaters.
