I just came in from one of the most amazing sessions I've ever had. Seeing was incredible. First time in my life I saw a near perfect airy disk resembling that in the textbooks - at 600x. Stars at a rather high 342x were dead set pinpoints (this is with an 8"), the stellar images were so crisp that I could've sworn I was using half that magnification. The reality of the situation was quite astonishing.
