Bill,
I can help you with this. What is your budget?
For a young observer it makes sense to go with a portable unit that has a wide field of veiw....very importat for spotting objects.
i have been a gazer since 8 years old. have had 4" to home made 12" inc. a 8" Celestron. i say if you can afford it ...go with a Schmidt cass. or a 6-8" reflector.
Get one now and you can still see the comet. Check out skyandtelescope.com for details.
