Thanks Iceman and Ving
Thought I'd have a go at writing a review as there was nothing in the no-mans-land of sub $350 scopes.
Most people's first contact with telescopes is either at a camera shop or Australian Geographic, so these are typically all people know about. We also forget that not so long ago a 4.5" Newtonian was cool, and 8" was considered "really serious" for the likes of Patrick Moore. Now we think of an 8" as entry level compared with the 10", 12" 16" 25+" dobsons that we can now get.
If I had the readies (and consent from 'She who must be obeyed') I'd be looking at a 25" Obsession scope from California and stick it in a large Sirius Observatory Dome, not forgetting a shed load of eyepieces.
