I have worked at an Observatory that has an ap1200. And I am currently setting up a remote observatory with a pme.
Both have amazing tracking, to the point that pe is lost in the seeing. The ap1200 at the observatory I worked at, its main purpose is to take 4 min exposures at 2.6 meters unguided with a c14, which it is doing well. They had some issues setting it with software for remote use, whereas the bisque software is very well supported. As for the mechanics of both mounts: they are both sensational.
If I was setting up remotely the PMX would be my choice. But if it was in my backyard, I'd take the ap1200.
