You'll thank me later Andrew. Trust me.
Was trying to avoid re-entering this thread as it seems to have been bantered around a little too long and ultimately the poll is conclusive. Get a quality mount, the best you can afford. Nothing more, nothing less.
Don't overlook image processing software and skills folks. As Ken indicates, having great equipment doesn't automatically mean you'll produce great images. As you advance, you'll soon realise that acquiring the data at the telescope is only a small percentage of producing a great image. The real work begins extracting the most from the data you've obtained. If you can't image process, your imaging equipment investment will be wasted.
Know the tools and more importantly when to use them.
