What factors should best guide your camera progression?

I'm learning shot processing now I have pointing and tracking and focusing going reasonably well. My next purchase is likely to be a CCD - but how should I plan this move.
At preset I say go to the Helix Nebulae - lock on and show 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 minute shots on a C9.25 then start Photoshop CS2 processing (levels and curves and a bit of filtering) - real basic stuff. I'm yet to stack or really play with images hard.

How show I plan my next steps forward? When should I buy more gear (i.e. what skills must I master before I get more high end imaging gear) and what gear should it be? All thoughts greatly appreciated!
Hi Matthew, I'd like to see some of your images, have you posted some on here?
