Wade, since you live in the city it should be fairly easy to get a look through a 3 or 4 inch refractor at a public night. If not, just buy what you want second hand so you can sell at a modest loss if it doesn't suit. ED100 prices take a big hit on the used market.
For quick looks an ED80 on an alt/az mount might suit. If you can put the scope out to cool before observing a 6" Celestron SCT is a compact unit with good optics.
