Choosing a good microscope

Hi! I want to buy a microscope to help me view my fossils. I know I want a binocular, zoom stereo microscope with a boom stand. I would love to have a digital camera with it. My problem is there are just too many choices! I am completely overwhelmed. I want to get a good quality scope from a reputable store, but I know nothing about microscopes. I have about $850 to spend. I want something that will last me a long time. If anyone could offer any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it. If you have a microscope you love (or hate), I would love to know the model/make and where you bought it. Actually, I'll take any advice I can get. I usually look for a couple hours then I have to turn my computer off and lie down! HELP!
