I checked the management area and I could see no deletions by Alan...in fact I have been the only moderator active for quite some time. (it keeps a hidden record of all moderator activity).
If you'd like to comment on the above thread it is still open and available......

I have two M25C's an SXV and an SXVF...I believe they are great cameras. The new cams from QHY and now Orion are going to be a great addition....competition is always good...it keeps companies competitive and encourages innovation. The M25C is a proven performer....the camera is small enough to be able to be used in a fastar/hyperstar setup...the cooling is superior (I never need darks..they add noise as many of you know)...and the support by the SX team cannot be beat. A good indication of the loyalty of the SX owners can be seen by the lack of them coming up for sale on either here (CN) or Amart.
