What is the focal length of the ETX 90? I'd really like to move up to one of these little (are they Schmidt Cassegrains?) scopes from my DS 114 (114 mm fl 5") reflector someday soon.
I"ve got collimation issues with my scope, and I frigging *hate* collimating Newtonians. It is almost impossible to get them right, and this scope doesn't even have the center dot on the mirror...I'd have to locate and put it there myself first. Ick.
The GOTO setup, though...that is sweeeetttt...don't knock it until you've tried it. The ETX's have the clock drive base already, yes? I thought they were easily adaptable for the Meade handboxes?
