Really though, how many of us, the first time we looked through a telescope even noticed chromatic abberation?

Amateur astronomers have a tendency to get a little weird about numbers and "facts", sort of like audiophiles...

The 70mm of aperture gives you 5 magnitudes better than the naked eye & a casual viewer will see plenty.
