That is extremely cool. The Game Boy platform is just BEGGING to be hacked,
tweaked, folded, bent, stapled and mutilated. Only problem with the Game Boy
DSO is that, at the current exchange rates, the cartridge will run you about
$180 US. Pretty good features and it is VERY portable, but I can buy a good
used Tek scope for that amount of money.
