Re: Synta have taken over Celestron????

I just looked at some back issues of S&T and in January 1968 you could
get a Celestron 16" f/11 180" f.l. with motor drive and slow motion
controls for only $11,500. I wonder what the inflation factor is. For
me that was about a years salary and my '68 Mustang cost me about $3000.
