Thanks Rob,
Yes, it's often all the little extras that add up and make beginners think "Man, not something MORE!?"
Upon reflection (yes, I am into puns) and due to the excellent advice already offered by Suzy and others and the fact that I encourage comments and suggestions, I have changed the name of the post from Perfect, to Recommended Beginner's packages, sounds better and more to the point as it's more of a recommendation than the ultimate packages on offer....
Oh, I also have changed the suggestion of the 3x ED barlow to 2x or 3x upon Suzy's excellent point about the usable magnifications on these dobs - thanks Suzy!
Cheers
Chris
