Mike:
I heard Williams optics surpass Borg optics. But I also heard Chevys
surpass Fords, which is not evidently true.
The guy who made that comment, however, had owned both and was a
good optician.
I also heard that the older Russian made ones were supposed to be
better.
They are supposed to be apochromatic. Check it out.

Glenn,
Appreciate the heads-up. Anacortes
lists a William Optics Fluoro-Star FLT 110mm f/6.5 Triplet SD oil-spaced
objective telescope with a 4-inch focuser. Other than that, I know
nothing (read with Sgt. Schulz accent).

I hear Williams Optics makes a suberb refractor of short focal
length and it is sold, I think, by Anacortes.
