Thinking about a new computer. Nov 12th, 2010 11:47 am. Stan Rodgers - The Giant. I am going to need a new computer in the first months of 2011. I was thinking about something like the Ars Budget box ( http:/ arstechnica.com/gadgets/guides/2. In terms of OS it will be linux, Ubuntu or Fedora but I'm not sure which yet. Nov 19th, 2006 03:17 pm. I am now using 3 computers at work with 4 screens. (And only one keyboard and mouse).

Observing Report Jupiter - Zachs Musings. Jan 29th, 2011 06:21 pm. I finally go the telescope collimated the other day (Yea laser collimator) and tonight took it out for a quick view of Jupiter. I had to do a quick. Fix of the primary mirror (took about 30s). Then hit Jupiter with the new Stratus 13 eyepiece, (about 90x) several bands were visible, there was a lot of detail visible, the view was amazing. 2011-01-29 10:42 pm (UTC). Do you have to deal with a lot of light pollution?

So this was the first time I have been able to get the new - Zachs Musings. Mar 4th, 2011 02:01 pm. So this was the first time I have been able to get the new 10 Dob out to a dark sky site. The good news the Tube fits in the back seat of a Mazda 2! Which is what Haim rented). The sky was clear and wonderful. I started with M42. Was stunning in the celestron 15x70 bincolars. (I was showing it off to someof the backpackers). I also found NGC2244 (The Rossette ). I was unable to find M104. The ring nebula) ...

Observing Report M42 and M45. Oct 15th, 2010 06:37 am. So last night I found myself up at 0330 or so. I went outside and the sky was clear and Orion was right there. So time to drag out the scope! I got the scope out (It needs wheels of some form) and quickly found M42, It looked amazing, big and bold. The trapazium cleanly split in the 21 Stratus (about 60x). And much of the nebula was easily seen. M45 was nice as well, the normal scattering of stars across the field.
