[APML] Best mount for AP130?

[eric raeburn <eraeburn@pacbell.net>]

What is the concensus on the best Astro-Physics mount for astrophotography
with the AP 130?  The maximum payload would be the 130 with a camera body,
the 80x900 guidescope sold by AP, and an additional camera with 300mm
telephoto lens.  The goal is to do prime-focus photography with film,
exposure times up to 1 hr. or more.

Is the 600EGTO massive enough, or would it be better to consider the
900GTO or something comparable, like the MI-250?

Thanks,
-Eric
