Using Starry Night to control Celestron C-8 telescope mount

Originally from ticket #5847.

I am planning on converting my old Celestron C-8 to a computer controlled fork mount. As this is around 700 dollars, I'd like to make sure it will work with Starry Night Pro. I am running a MacBook Pro 10.7.3 I looked at the list in the FAQ. I was unsure of the mount, since these seem to be new telescope systems. Would a Celestron CG5 Computerized Mount (http://www.highpointscientific.com/product/CEL-91518/Celestron-CG5-Advanced-Series-Computerized-Go-To-German-Equatorial-Mount-91518.html?meta=GBASE&metacpg=CEL-91518&utm_source=gbase&utm_medium=CPC&utm_content=&utm_campaign=CEL-91518?meta=GAW&gclid=CN-hrsu4zq8CFQHd4Aodm2YUFA) be compatible? Is the NexStar system generally compatible with Starry Night?

Thanks for your help with this!
