Stuffem! (Celestron & Meade that is). They're going down cos they got greedy! It was just too tempting to go where the big bucks are: junk scopes for the unwary masses! But they did this after they've defined (and one may argue established) themselves as manufacturers who do not compromise on quality. Of course they can't compete with Asian manufacturers any more! Imagine what would happen to Astro-Physics or Takahashi if they started putting their names on the sort of junk scopes we see on ebay.
PS, I know nothing & I'm just blowing smoke out of my arse. I've never looked through any of their scopes.
