Hey all,

Everyone knows just how great the OM1 (and n) is for astronomy.  But you
need a good telescope.  Get a load of this one that is for sale (only 1 yr.
old).  Hard to believe people spend that much on the stuff.

Any takers?

If you want to see a picture and get a description of a new version
of this very fine scope:

This brand of scope seems to dominate the reader photo gallery in Sky
and Telescope. The $36K includes just the optical tube, not the very
expensive and huge equatorial mount and drive system or the 6
eyepieces which run in the $300-400 range.  I think you would have to
hire a truck and crew to go pick this item up. :-)
