I agree with Alan. Stay away from an EQ mount unless imaging is definitely where you are heading. A dob mount will be much easier to use and cheaper.
EQ mount only advantage for visual use is that they track, but disadvantages are
They require power
Eyepiece ends up in all sorts of odd positions
Require polar aligning
More things to go wrong
Steeper learning curve
Harder to find objects, at least for beginners
I know, have used both, always recommend a dob!
