Ahhh, as affiliated as one can possibly get to Meade, Jason Ware is still a
non-biased individual.  This statement secures this, and in representative
of the fact that no single manufacturer can possibly make all optics,
mounts, drives, and accessories to please the masses.  Well, maybe not the
masses, but at least us discriminating astrophotographers. (exception:
AP???  HaHa) When first getting into astronomy, it is hard to pass up
Meade's beautiful advertising, but as many of us learn.... you cannot judge
a book by its cover!
