Thanks for that info Andrew. A follow-up visit to the Guan Sheng site let me see what the GS500 looked like.
The few pics. I've been able to see of Dobs scopes haven't been too clear on showing where the eye-piece fits. It seems it must be close to the aperture alongside the finder-scope. Thus, I guess, one only needs a comfortable stool.
I think the time has come to actually visit a shop, perhaps BinTel, and actually see some scopes in the flesh. The 6" BinTel Dobs might well be the go, if they still have/make them.
