It is computerized, but has been cloudy every night for a week, but last night was able to manually point it and get a look at Jupiter and saw at least 3 of it's moons. Could also see stripes on Jupiter. Only have one eyepiece that is medium magnification. Bought it from a guy that had it sitting in his living room for 5 years. Got a great deal.
