*Some years ago, about 6 or 7, I thought of replacing my 565 with the Orion
II 566.  I was fortunate to be able to have both of them on my bench and
they both really perform.  The O II has a real nice color screen and it may
be enough to make the trade.  The actual operation was much the same. I
really could not tell any real difference. The O II really does look
great.  I kept my 565 and am still using it today.*
