There are enough features in the many free software packages to overwhelm a newcomer without paying for the privilege. Try before you buy! When new to the hobby, I just think the money saved with the available free software is better spent toward other choices - such as gas in the tank for star parties and club meetings. For example, from where I live, it's a 140 mile round trip to the monthly Prairie Astronomy Club meeting, and at least 100 mile round trip to the monthly star party.
