Yep, last I looked the G8 was around $4,000 with Goto, has a 13kg weight limit, looks sexy, has some risk of motor burnout if not well balanced and appears to be within 1 acrsec of the Vixen's tracking performance for the SXW mount.

So Vixen may have a winner here.

Interestingly I read that the local distributors - Astro Optical - who seem switched on to me - apparently didn't know of this mounts existence for the last 3 months until a customer queried them why they didn't stock it!
