a beginner question - scopes

[GreG]

Hi list.

I am needing (arg) to buy an oscilloscope. At the local shop they adviced me a pc based one, saying it was a cheap alternative to classic models, a bit more expensive then cheapcheappo models but far more reliable. What do u guys'n'girls think? Is this worth it? Is it precise enough for audio based circuits? Please tell me..as they ordered it for me, but i think i can still say no if i'm quick enough... i'm **hesitating**.. maybe a cheapo one could do the trick for me? (but they're not THAT cheaper compared to pro scopes they talked to me about...) So maybe u could at least tell what characteristics i DO need from a scope...
thanx

greg.
