Dome Laptop fails
Disaster struck last week when my dome laptop refused to switch on and was deemed to be not worth repairing. Fortunately all data was saved but I had to purchase a new one. Much time was spent in reloading software onto the new Windows 7 computer. As always not everything worked at first causing some stress. Updating the Software Bisque (SB) software to the latest versions and looking at Windows 7 issues discussed on the SB forums eventually resolved these problems. Now all I need is a clear night to be able to check that the telescope pointing has been maintained.
