Talking Crayford Focusers

Hey Guys, Subatomic here,

I am about to buy a GSO 8" Dobsonian and it has a 'Micro 10:1' Crayford focuser.

I was just wondering what the meaning behind that 10:1 ratio is and why it is described as 'Micro' ( I'm guessing that it means you can make fine, 'micro' focus adjustments???).

If anyone could fill me in it would be great. Thanks!
