hello all,I finally purchased the 8" GSO Dob mount from
www.Telescopes-Astronomy.com.au. Matthew is an expert and gave me a lot of info and various configuration on my first phone call. Never in a hurry to sell anything, lets the buyer make their decision at ease.... i would highly recommend him.The dob was delievered today and by the time I finished assembling it, the sky was all cloudy.....damn rains......so hopefully, I'll get a chance to check out my dob-scope tomorrow....and I really hope I'm able to see some nebulosity of the orion ....well something....Moon is the best....i won't miss that for sure.....thank you for all your comments and views. You saved me from the pains of regret if I would have purchased the 4.5" powerseeker....i got a 8" one in almost the same price...wow-veeeee .....ThanksVivek
