hmm not a bad idea, especially given the price of top end equipment.

I guess the risk is, that astronomy is a hobby - whereas a car or home theatre are usually "staples" and you're always going to need it.

The worry would be that someone gets finance for $10k worth of astronomy gear for their new hobby , and then find that they don't like the cold nights, clouds, bad seeing etc and then not pay their debt back.
