Donated equipment to check out

I'm don't think we should keep a bunch of small telescopes at all. The reason they were donated to us in the first place is that the views are not very good. If they have poor mounts, they may be frustrating to aim as well. Even worse, many of them are going to have steep learning curves. (I mean the ones with computers or even a equatorial mounts.) I think they are just as likely to turn someone off of astronomy as inspire them to pursue it. An argument could be made in favor of one travel scope or one four-inch Dobsonian that is small enough for a child to handle, but that's it in my opinion.
