What a breath of fresh air with a clean interface, logically set out without the Maxim attitude.
So unlike some I've tried both and I prefer a clean simple pallette rather than a greasy high calorie meal. Sequence generator enables me to get on target, plate solve then do all my lights and calibration frames with any of my cameras or scopes or mounts and does it all beautifully rather than spending all night Wondering why my guider won't work with Maxim.
Just my 2 cents

Ok, go with the easy to use plastic hammer then, but you'll have to bang a lot harder when the nails get bigger.
