Cheers Jen,
Do have stellarium, its sort of actually been the final straw to push me into a proper scope. The old man has this ancient old thing, good for the moon only nowadays, had a hard life. This one however will not!
Would like to view, play with one at a star night, but from what I can see either the Telescope shop in Sydney or Myastroshop seem to be the place to spend the money. Both around $2200ish.
Actually now I have people who know what they are talking about.......... The old man said he'd top up the bank to buy a celestron CPC1100. Again another GOTO scope but i'm sure people here know that. Any ads/disadvantages of this type of cassegrain type thing. looks quite different/short. The thing with this one, the telescope shop is about $3k cheaper.
Just buy the dob???
