Generally, if you soft cripple your product, you can bet someone will come along and un-cripple it for you.

Yes, despite saying before that I'm OK with the software options........ you can bet the first thing I'd try to do with this PSU is to defeat them. Hey, I bought the hardware! Your move, Rigol.
Your move, Rigol.

The software to take advantage of the one extra digit might worth pennies, but the hardware to create it might cost 90 $.

"Show me the evidence where the Rigol has the same signal integrity issues as that Tekway I tested."
I don't own Rigol, so i couldn't compare it to my Takeway. Takeway is by far not the perfect scope, but it is excellent for its price. I wouldn't expect ideal signal integrity and super smooth operation from a 300 Euro scope. But it does its job for hobby segment (the segment it is designed for) very good.
The bad things you mentioned about this Rigol PSU aren't killer issues, some buttons or colors you don't like,very subjective, who cares.If I would do a payed reviews, i would also point some light disadvantages , to make my video more credible... Else it would be too perfect.
It seems you don't have tolerance to negative feedback, i know people like that. They ask for feedback, but once you criticize their work, they go berserk on you.
I actually thought Dave was a bit too picky about the Rigol PSU - complaining about the rotary knob and numerical buttons. But he comes across as a bit of a nerdy perfectionist in his videos, and I think it's part of his charm.
For a moment I thought Dave had a guest presenter for this video. You sound a bit crook mate!
Sagan and I have a bad virus, of the long lasting 5+ day kind apparently, it's "going around"
Well... It could be worse.

Dave,
I think it is a fair question to ask oneself whether you are getting something in return from the manufacturer for reviewing their stuff.
It would help a lot if you could write a short note saying that you have no business relationship with Rigol whatsoever, and if you have any please describe the terms.
I am sure Citizen was not the only one wondering this, so you should have taken his questioning as an opportunity to clarify things with him and with all the rest of the audience who are wondering the same.
I am a bit disappointed you tried to intimidate Citizen with your tone BTW.
In my case I did feel a bit suspicious because I saw you dismissing USB scopes(without even asking what problem where they trying to solve) Although you got my trust back when you posted your video on how to buy a 20Mhz scope on EBAY.
I am totally OK if you get paid by some manufacturer but please say it clearly if that happens.
