I would ditto what Nitihla said. I like the AD and have both the original and the newest version. When Dave reviewed the original unit he spoke very highly of the software, which is more expensive and time consuming than the hardware to produce. The AD software is free to download as a trial version, and if the ADALM software is available I would download both and compare. If it is not, I would ask why?? The AD was designed as a learning tool and has a lot of advanced features besides the scope. While I think mine will have a permanent place on my bench because of the logic features and analyzer software, I would not look at it as a replacement for a dedicated scope for the long haul. Not with the quality and prices in the current scope market.
