You have a Paramount to mount yours on - most people who can afford a GSO RC cannot afford a Paramount.
I expect that more RC12's will sell when the EQ8 comes out , but that the EQ8 won't adequately hold a 16" RC .
I would have to disagree with this point. The paramount second hand is getting down (on astromart) to around 8k. This present excellent value for money. I imaging a lot of prospective 16 owners will be buying paramounts.

I expect to pull the trigger on a rc16 when they are due to be released. Can't wait, in fact I have most of the imaging train sorted out ready to go on one of these babies.
