The opinions coming in are fantastic, sounds like finding the best scope is harder than defining the ideal woman( apologies to any female astronomers, I don't mean to sound sexest). I figure we are all amateurs so ease of use must be a priority. GOTO is great because most of us are lazy. Most of us have realistic budgets, so we will never see the martians walking on Mars, maybe just more detail of planets, moon and nearby objects. There must be a limit to aperture size that is relevant to mere mortals. Quality optics must then be the important factor. Come on, hit me with your opinions.
