Save up, grab yourself an HEQ5 and an autoguider and blast away.

i have a heq5 but it still needs to be properly aligned to work well. the camera i am using isnt known for its astro capabilities either Nikon d90)... auto guider? i could do with one of thoe i reckon... but know naught of them. the heq5 does have a port for it tho. really not taking this too seriously as i will probably never get the best or even proper gear, but i'd like to squeeze the most out of what i have.
