Images. The SW90 has a 1 1/4 inch adapter already included. The Celestron 90 is designed for use with an erecting prism (see image) but I have a Celestron T-Thread Adapter for it that can go for an extra $70. The aluminium case the scopes are sitting on is for the Celestron and it can be thrown in for say $30. The Celestron comers with a Celestron 25mm Plossl and the diagonal. Note that I have also moiunted it on a shoe that will sit straight into a standard Vixen saddle so you can whack it in a side-by-side setup for guiding.
