I'm betting you wished you hadn't asked? ☺

I think your quote is funny. I am trying to see if I can realistically work towards buying one. If not it may well be the Williams Optics 103 mm Zenithstar. 

 

All the contributions are interesting though  Mike

I believe that if you're going to own just one telescope, then why not make it the best you can afford? Ive owned some very nice large refractors, but the larger they get, the less I want to use them.

The Takahashi 100DC and DF are 100 mm aperture and 740mm focal length, one element fluorite.  They are superb, in my view you wont get better for visual observing.  And yes, they are better than FPL53

Can't speak highly enough of my 100mm Tak doublet - mine is the F/9 version but the F/7.4 and F/8's are really superb as well. I still have my ED120 Skywatcher though and that is also a cracking

And there is a thin green UPS tracking line snailing its way across the country to my house as I type. :blob7:
