Ahh!  I see the distinction now.  I'm building an observatory and 
plan on having a laptop in the setup I'm working on anyway, so it's 
still a possibility.

I just looked today on SBIG's website and it said they were sold out 
and have been since April 2001.  Unless I find a good used ST-4, 
that's why I've been looking at the ST-5C...
