Knowing how really good photographs don't bode well for dial-up users, that's what scared me!

You should have seen the size of the originals.

The thing is I don't expect alot out of it interms of long exposures for deepsky, if I got 1 minute out of it I'd be extremely happy with it, amazed in fact. Its expecting alot to keep a tube nearly 9 feet long and nearly 2 feet wide rock steady for any appreciable time given wind and breezes.
Primarily I'm thinking of planetary and lunar imaging and simple plain old tracking when looking through the eyepiece.

but what a way to go.

That is some great work Lads Mars looks great.I still have to get a crack at it . Dave the Scope looks great now that it can track you will be able to do some damage on the night sky.
