How much does a set up like that cost? I'm looking to spend $300-500 bucks on a good telescope with computerized tracking. What would you recommend?

Meade ETX 90. They run about $495. I think. A fabulous starter scope, that can find objects on it's own, with a built in data base, punch in the coordinance on the key pad, and it will find it.

Don't get anything to big for a first scope. Make sure you are "into it" first before spending sizable bucks
