Please forgive me for repeating what others have said already here... For under $1000 you'll get:
- a kiddy scope on a good EQ mount
- an average scope on an average EQ mount
- or an awesome scope on a very ergonomic Dob mount.
I got into astronomy thinking I'd get EQ or nothing, but after some experience with cheap EQ mounts, I went the Dob and never looked back.
