1. what will the main usage be for?

Only you will know that. Typically scopes are used to look at signals in time domain

2. i have seen the ones you can buy the use a usb and your pc screen are they any good?

Not as a primary scope. Or as a primary, if you use it very rarely.

3. if 2 = no what is good for my first basic oscilloscope
