[sdiy] Which Oscilloscope to buy?

[Paul Maddox]

FWIW, I got an OWON scope, it's brilliant....
I love that I can capture stuff on my PC and zoom in/out or save it as
a JPG for reference.

the other nice things are that it's small (i.e. shallow so it fits on
my bench without taking up half of it!) it's light, so it's
portable!!!

That doesn't just apply to the OWON one though, I liked that cause it
was a damn good price :-)
