Mark,
I purchased a dome 2 years ago and have never regretted the purchase.
In fact I am still thrilled. You can check out my web site
<A HREF="http://members.aol.com/paulgitto/index.html">The Arcturus
Observatory Home Page</A> has images of the dome, ect.
Also <A HREF="http://www.homedome.com">Technical Innovations, Inc.</A> is the
Manufacturer of the Pro-Dome and they now have their own web site. Hope it's
of help
Paul
