I've had a couple of cheap telescopes. To look at mountaintops and other earthbound stationary objects they worked well enough but for looking at the moon and planets though they were pretty much useless. It took ages to get everything in focus and adjusted only to watch the moon drift right past.



I'd like one of those computer controlled jobs that automatically track the object as it moves though the sky as I imagine it would be much less frustrating.
