I found this on OPTCORP. Anyone interested in a quarter-million dollar scope? Sort of a dream come true.

Super scopes!

Just don't watch any of the youtube videos on them, you won't stop drooling!

This one is a bit old but still amazing!

Watch from about 7 mins into the video.

I wouldn't buy it! It's on an Alt-Az mount, so field rotation galore! That's what I'm telling myself to keep the drool in.
