Subject: LX90 Fork Mount or CGEM Handcontroller?

Hi Milton,

I'm still planning my new mount/scope purchase and keep coming up with questions.

Can I use Astro IIDC with Meade Alt/Az mounts such as the LX90 ACF? Also, I know that I can use it with a Celestron CGEM via A Shoestring GPUSB, but do you know if I can bypass the GPUSB and go directly to the Celestron hand-controller? I did this previously on an LXD75 (didn't need the GPUSB).

I'm just trying to get my ducks in a row before purchasing anything and, like I've said in the past, I'm so happy with, and experienced at using your software, I want to build my new equipment around it if at all possible.

Thanks for the years of wonderful support!!
