I enjoyed it too but did feel a slight twinge of shame for buying a 16 inch dob as my first telescope. But then I remembered all those amazing things I've seen through it already and a smile replaced my frown rather quickly.
I also took solace in that my mileage does indeed vary from most and that I am well prepared for the handling and storage issues. Most of the rest of the article made really good sense and I too am glad I went for the big dob rather than the slightly smaller GOTO I was contemplating. Thanks
