8) Anybody had experiance with both the cpc w/skyalign vs the meade lx90gps alignment,i have decided between these two scopes as my first sct,the lx90 would be 8" and the celestron would be the 925xlt, maybe the 8 becuase of size,i have read quite a few reviews and the way they make it sound the cpc w/skyalign is easier or just as easy as the lx90gps alignment,which is opposite of what i was thinking.any thoughts or hands on experiance,thanks.jeff

I am thinking of dropping my 12" dob,and buying a celestron cpc925xlt,have had dobs only,what should i expect? will i maybe like or dislike,mostly concerned with the views,i will be visual observing only.I know i will be gaining goto,but other than that,what should i expect if im used to the dobs,ive wanted an sct for 30 years,and with the $400 rebate the cpc sound like a pretty good deal,when im all said and done,i only want to have one scope sitting around,what do you guys think,any advice would be great,thanks alot,j

If you were a visual astronomer with lets say a $1000-$2500 budget and could only have ONE scope,what would it be and why?Dob,Sct??????
