Processing knowledge and experience make 90% of the picture IMHO. You can always get the most out of your existing gear. If your gear is that bad then you work around it and you get better at processing. It's a win-win situation. I still use the same cheap scope to image to date. I used to blame it and curse at it in the past until I got a couple of good shots. That clarified a few things: the weakest link in my imaging train was still me, not the gear and I still have a long way to go.
