I'd totally agree with the last statement, get to a star gazing night before you spend a cent and get a feel for all the different gear.

I'm just getting into astrophotography now, I have an 8" SCT but have realized I really need a good solid mount, an apo triplet refractor and the best ccd I can afford.

If I was buying again now I would go with something like renormalised's suggestion and grab a 10" skymaster dobsonian for general viewing when the photo bug isn't eating your soul.
