I forgot something in 7)

SBIG will have a 400mm square camera, with 10^ gawd-knows-how-many elements that will require a separate computer.  You will need a computer to control the figure, one for the tracking, one for the camera, and one for notes/observing program.  Not to worry...... something better than anything Cray ever produced will be available at the Stuffmart checkout on a key ring!!!   And THAT may be a reality!!!
