Phil great looking setup and a lot like mine but one question is how do you vent the heat from the computer and other equipment or do you just let nature take it course and vent through the dome slot? I run a very low power PC with a built in heater for the winter months to keep the hard drive from crashing and I heat my pier during that time too but not until I close down for the night so I have little or no effect from the internal equipment on my seeing unless I say in there to long and then it's tons of humidity just from me. I do remote that on-board PC via ethernet from inside the house, which keeps me out of the dome but I would like to see how others handle issues that come up in dome installations.

Is that one of those POD thingys? How do you like it?

I'm jealous...it looks like you're quite a bit south of me. Texas, Florida?
