As a foot note, he says he is "moving" and "must sell"  Moving up to a
larger scope?  Crazy to sell after 1 year (all things being equal)

Wow! Take a look at the picture, it looks like he's got a dome for it too...
I think anyone who buys a telescope like this is serious enough to go live
in the wilderness on top of a mountain too... I wonder what the focal-length
equivalent is for a 20" telescope...? That thing makes the Zuiko 1000/11.0
look like a 40/2.0!
