Now thats just pornography.
I don't know which I'd want to do first..
Drive it off the balcony (and jump out)
or into the pool.

:D

And while we are on the matter
is this not the greatest driving machine invented?
I must have one... I WILL have one!!!

You can take it that Meade do not have a choice, obviously they're production and shipping costs are too high, and you can expect that they will have quality issues for the next couple of years, with starting up again at another location.

I don't want to dance on it's grave, but since when have Meade not had quality issues? It seems to me that the company has consistently had a reputation not only for quality issues but for handling them very poorly (at least in the US, comments about European support seem to have been more positive).

I don't know Roland personally but I have one of his mounts and can attest to the quality being of the highest order.

I have TWO of his mounts and can confirm your observation!

I'm sure Anto can attest to the quality of the optics...

Heaven ... bliss ... nirvana ... ecstasy ... orgasm ... ex. www.perseus.gr/Astro-DSO-NGC-6853b.htm and www.perseus.gr/Astro-DSO-NGC-6995b.htm and many more.

Oh yes, I have been on the waiting list for a Starfire 160 for 5 years now... Apparently its beyond 7 years of a wait. What does that tell you?

Very frustrating but let's have this discussion AFTER you get the scope ... you will instantly develop amnesia ... Wait? What wait? Who? Me? When? How long? Seriously?

Dave.
You know the way I'm accident prone?....
Heres one to put the hairs standing...
I skateboarded up to about 4 years ago!
Down hill slalom long board was my thing...

I'll let the thoughts of the falls I've had propagate in your head.
:twisted:
As for surfing injuries....
Pull up a stool....
This is gonna take a while....

Frank, I got in sky digital recently and came across "world most amazing accidents" on one of the channels, I'm just waiting to see you on it. :lol: :lol:
I dont mean to be too down on the cheap Chinese scopes, its just that i saw what the LXD was like when Frank got it, and for once Frank, you didnt break it, it came that way. :wink: :lol:

Aston Martins last about 2 years.

Until the playboy poser buys another one.

Their re-sale value is practically zilch.

F1 gearboxes and engines last only a few laps.

Toyotas just go on and on and on.
