:) Yeah money,

I had a cheap telescope when I was growing up, but I couldnt get enough of looking
at craters on the moon, or at my neighbors house down the street. I've wanted
another 'better' telescope for a long time. I have a daughter that would really
love it too. But alas, money.

I havent really priced telescopes in a long time. What should you spend to get a
decent telescope?
