I'm enjoying Dobby very much. There must be a lot of "Dobbies" around, especially since the Harry Potter films. It's so easy to grab a few minutes viewing. The eq mounted refractor was always a bit offputting. My wife and boys are always quite keen on having a look too. It's awe inspiring stuff up there.
