Meade tries

I found this remark in the Meade telescope FAQ:

Q: How much maintenance do telescopes require?

A: With the reasonable care due any fine instrument, a Meade telescope will offer a lifetime of service with almost no maintenance whatever. If the telescope is dropped or damaged in some way, the Meade Customer Service Department can offer repair advice, usually sending the required repair part or component by mail, avoiding return of the telescope to the factory.

Interesting.
