Radek has updated his Web site and looks to be improving his documentation (still WIP)
P.S. I dont agree with Davy on his view of Astroberry but take his point - easier to use what you know :-) at first.
Aren't horse drawn carts still used,instead of a car, in parts of Glasgow I believe - only joking Davy :-).
Stay well and Safe !

Wow! you're not kidding. So, so, so bright and polished and professional looking. I wanna try it just 'cos it looks so good. Not taking the piss here, it looks gorgeous. Nice coverage of features and potential use. Not sure if I'm ready for it tho, still aspiring to get an image somewhat like his banner image.... I wish.

I warn you that it's a double challenge, not only moving to new astro apps for imaging, but also moving to new operating system i.e. linux.
PS1. I still remember when 23 years ago I reinstalled my desktop PC, replacing my beloved (at that time) windows with linux redhat. I almost cried all night long... because I didn't know how to even list files on my new system However, I was patient and have never returned to Windows.

I used to load redhat onto old computers that were becoming too slow with memory hungry windows upgrades and not enough RAM. It all worked well until I had to input commands .But I havent progressed very far in 20 years. Luckily now you guys write the commands and all we have to do is copy and paste them. I agree with Ian ,the astroberry is pretty impressive, I just need more time and more clear nights. cheers Paul

Astroberry is a great concept,, no doubt about it,, I bought two raspberry pi4 4gb boards to back it up,, and at the present time i haven't got it the Way I want it to operate,, do I still believe in it,, yes,,, as stated windows is power hungry,, even just getting on to Web browsers,, where the raspberry gets you there in jig time,, But,, ๐ If we all pull together,, then we can try and push forward,, The raspberry pi,, is good and cheap,, Lattepanda is windows based and not as cheap,, especially moving up into decent ram. What we needed is something to bridge the device.. This looks interesting to me,, comes in more expensive than the raspberry pi,, but has more ram,, and is cheaper than a lattepanda alpha,, www.seeedstudio.com/ODYSSEY-X86J4105800-p-4445.htmlMaybe what we are looking for

Maybe 40% isn't going to happen more likely cut to 17.5% so maybe worth holding on for any new bits unil Nov 2020! - to coin a phrase by one Dad's army character - "were doomed !" LOL - hopefully no offence to anyone in these days of PC - cos I dont care so there !

I see Germany has cut it's vat rate,, trying to kick start the economy again I just ordered 2 items from Germany on ebay last night. I didn't see anything about any cut rates. Freight was a killer though. I also don't know how long it will take for the items to arrive. Months?
