Hi,
I was considering the Orion XT10 with the computerised Object locator myself at one stage but was advised that the 'dsc' is more oriented for Northern hemisphere celestial objects and will only point to a few things below the equator in the south - something that should be confirmed before purchasing.

FWIW, the price for a Orion XT10 + their proprietary object locator was equilavent to a Bintel 10" GSO premium with argonarvis and from that imo is a better way to go.

The Orions don't come with crayford focusers either.

Just my 2 cents worth.
