The Rigol DS1052E
Simon:
Keep 1 analogue scope, i sold my Gould300 to part pay for the Rigol DS1052E and boy have I regreted it, if your in a situation where no noise is essential or its a very small signal you will need that analogue scope, my Rigol will probably not take me lower than a signal of 100 mV because at that point the inherent noise of the scope (like any other digital scope) will become part of your signal.

I joined the Rigol Bandwagon, in part from Dave's review. I'm still learning how to use the single-shot features for capturing digital signals. I'd love to see a tutorial on how to use it to troubleshoot things like SPI buses, etc. I'm learning, but Dave's experience (and all of yours) sure cuts the learning curve down. I've been in the software business for 15 years (still work for the evil empire) and I know code and the business side of it very well, but hardware and EE side is new (and VERY interesting) to me.

I would also like to see this.

I got my Rigol 1052E today, ordered it from the HappySeeds dudes eight days prior, with shipping from China to the Central Valley of California. Interestingly enough, [continuous] checking on the EMS tracking system showed that my parcel was stuck in customs at LAX for four days, and was only released about eight hours ago.
I know that the USPS is pretty good, but I doubt that they got it from LAX customs to my door in eight hours-- and I wasn't shipping flux-capacitors or dark matter (of which every pound weighs 10,000 pounds.)
I think they padded the delivery time and defaulted the blame on customs. But either way, eight-full days from button click to my door-- not bad at all.
It smells like crap-- like burnt plastic, but it looks, and so far, functions GREAT!
And you KNOW WHAT?-- I'm gonna take it apart right now! <--- what a nut-job, huh?
