My one concern is that the current ASCOM driver for the LX200GPS has some bugs.
I also remember one specific problem with using the LX200 classic ASCOM driver with CdC that used to cause me to sometimes switch to CdC's own Meade driver. But we upgraded to a new LX200R scope at the local obs a few years ago, so I haven't used that recently. On the other hand, I don't want to slow down development of CdC, and with any luck, the issues with the ASCOM LX200GPS driver should eventually be sorted out.
