Yuri,
Those "Markus Ludes School of Telescope Marketing" lessons have certainly
paid off. You will be a telescope selling maschine for shure.

Markus know his chops better than many here.
Say Edward, why dont you take off and then come back when you've brought 10+
models of APO scope into production with almost no wait list, as well as an extensive
new series of great planetary eyepieces and barlows?
Fact is, Markus Ludes is doing a great service to amateur astronomy. His contributions
will be felt for many years as this superb hardware remains available to us all.
Therefore, as much as many of you whiners might object, Markus really is deserving of:
((( THE AMATEUR ASTRONOMY HARDWARE ASSOCIATION )))
LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD
For improving the observing of so many people, on every continent.

Humor is wasted on some people. Markus is indeed an asset to the community.
His reputation solid enough to survive my previous post, particularly on
April Fool's day.

He's too young for it. Give him half a lifetime award, and we'll
check what he's doing again when he reaches eighty.

60 lbs ? How much of that is in the glass alone? I don't envy working
those steep curves....
What is the cool down time for good images in such a dense and compact
200mm scope for say, 20deg. F delta?
