Both of the scopes mentioned are computerised, which sounds like a good idea except for the following
1) Computerised scopes take a bit of knowledge to set up and align
2) You sacrifice aperture in exchange for the gadgetry
3) There is more to go wrong with these KISS (keep it simple st***d) applies
The good ol 8" dob scope is almost always the best option, or a 6" if the budget only extends that far. Most visual observers use dobs with as big an aperture as they can handle and afford. There is a very good reason for this, aperture always wins!!
Good luck with the choice
