While you're here, how about checking out the Astronomy Book List ?

Glad to hear this--I want a healthy Meade that will continue to innovate
and, just perhaps, come up with a competitor to the new Celestron Nexstar11
GPS. Putting more robust bearings in the LX-200's is a good start but I sure
would like to see a completely redesigned "LX-300" :-) And that stock at
current prices may be a good buy if you believe the company is going to stay
in business.

Andy
