The goto dobs are a brilliant idea and great value. I'm not on the market for electronics though. I have that already with the CGE mount. Great mount though.
Something simple that can't burn out, run out of batteries and takes me back to basics for visual observing. A scope that can be thrown in the car at a moments notice when I see a break in the clouds. The use of star charts, red lights, notebook and pencil and a good knowledge of the sky. Ah....the good old days.
