Computer control of a AP900 GTO.

I know stellarium works on P3 with windows but it still depends on your video card. It is free so it is worth a shot. The following link is for the Scope control download. You also need to download the main program.There are drivers for the AP goto mounts.http://www.stellarium.org/wiki/index.php/Telescope_Control

Glad to hear the news. It seems there will be two companies with larger ED refractors next year.

Stargazing in Hawaii? Magellanic clouds from Maui?

Posted By Dave Barta
Your best bet is Haleakala. One of the top 10 spots for seeing. Take your scope and enjoy the view. The park is open 24 hours. You will be amazed at the views. Weather permitting.There are also star gazers tours that use some larger scopes that you can check on.There is Maui Astronomy Club

I am not sure if there are any other clubs.

Keep us posted Keith. It will be interesting to see what you think about the lens and grats on your purchase.
