10" LX200 is not such a bad idea at the moment since it comes with a solar Ha telescope thrown in until end of December (have to move quick).
Since the tube/fork assembly weighs over 60 pounds only consider this scope if you have no back/joint problems and you're fairly strong, or if you can wheel the scope on a trolley or mount it in an observatory.
While the LX scopes are nice to use, a 10" dob is 1/5th of the price and more portable (tube weighs 30 pounds) and both scopes will show essentially the same view at the eyepiece.
