Default Is this a good beginner telescope?

Sky-Watcher 90mm Refractor Telescope with AZ3 Mount.
With 180x magnification. (1 eyepiece only)
Single axis motor drive (please tell me what that is)
f/10 speed
45 degree diagonal (will this allow terrestrial viewing??)

Another telescope:
Sky-Watcher 153mm (6'') Dobsonian Telescope


So....should i get the first one or the second??
They are both $300
