Hi,
another important question: Permanent setup (as in Backyard Observatory) or do You need to be mobile?
Anything on the heavy side of a G11 is not going to be much fun dragging around.
If You want to take the equipment on a trip easy and fast setup is mandatory - if it takes hours just to erect and polar-align the mount You're not going to enjoy Astronomy for long.
Still, as Greg said, the mount is the most important piece of equipment, so the best part of your budget should be spent on it.
Regards,
Steffen
