Losmandy Vs Celestron Go To

I am seriously considering a Losmandy GM-8 with Gemini go to as a platform for a C 9.25. I have read everything here in these forums that I can find on the Losmandy system, I do not seem to find anything on the new Celestron CGE serries mounts to compare the two. I have seen several comments that say the Celestron mounts are getting good reviews but I cannot find reviews on them. By the time you pay for all the things needed to put a scope on the Losmandy it is about the same cost as the Celestron. Anyone know where I can find some reviews that could put the two go to mounts mounts in perspective?

There is a CGE User Group set up on Yahoo. They have been posting lots of info regarding the CGE scopes. You can join that group and ask any questions of the members. Most of what they have been saying is positive although there seems to be a lot of mount tweeking being mentioned. I have been considering getting a CGE mount. I have been following the threads in this group. The URL is:
