the scope becomes huge and macho when discussed with my non-astronomer workmates,
I refuse to enter discussions on scope size with Obsession and SDM owners because it gives me a phycosis and scope envy

You're quite right, Rider - only too true. Especially with the wife, it is always small, and it is amazing how cheap all the accessories are - like zoom Hyperion EP only $50, clock drive for my 120 mm refractor - well it comes free in cereal packets - doesn't it???
As for the Argo Navis for the Lightbridge, well it is only the same size as a small radio - can't be more than $100
Lucky she never reads bank statements
