The Meade LXD-75 is a really, really nice scope out of the box. I used one last year and it got a double thumbs up from me. If anything the mount may let it down if you get very ambitious astrophotographically. The EQ6 is a great mount that will take a lot of weight should you plan to hang lots of equipment off it and do autoguiding - but be aware, it probably requires a bit of tweaking to get it up to scratch (my heq5 is fine for a 10" visually).
So, if you just want it to work and give you a good experience, get the Meade.
If you are a practical sort of chap, then the skywatcher/eq6 has plenty of potential (but is a lot larger than the meade and needs a pier to work best).
Can't comment on the Celestron.
