New DSLR

Hi all, I am finally going to buy my first DSLR sometime in the new year to replace my Minolta film SLR but through my research I have discovered the Minolta camera division has been sold to Sony.
I have been looking at the Sony A100 which is compatible with my Minolta lenses, I don't want to have a bunch of zoom and macro lenses that I cant use. The main usage will be astrophotography and general photography.
I am also looking at the Canon and Nikon range as well but would prefer to have a camera where I can still utilise my lenses.

I would be grateful of any opinions from our more DSLR savvy members in relation to this camera, or indeed if anyone owns one their thoughts on this camera will be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
