I didn't say the 127is was much better because I wasn't making any such comparison. I see them as different instruments: the faster (f5.2) 127is is better suited for a photographic application, whereas the longer focal length (f8.6) of the 102 is more to my liking as a visual telescope.
And, with a cost delta of over $4,000 I really like the 4" model -- YMMV.
They were both using Gibraltar mounts.
