I don't think your quite grasping everything as both the 114x900 and 130x900 come on the EXACT same mount. The only difference between the two is the 130mm has a larger aperture (bigger opening) which is what you want. So if anything you should be going with the 130x900.

But in saying that, go for a Dob. I had, well still do have except I tossed the mount, the SW450. It's a good starting scope, but the mount really lets it down for all the reasons mentioned already. A Dob is a much better way to go.
