So, I just wanted to post an update.
My new E36313A is here, and it's great, I love it.
It's hard to get excited about a nice power supply, but it's a lot like having a good vise -- it's boring but it makes everything else easier.
They've mostly, but not entirely, fixed the voltage spike that occurs when you plug it in.
It still has a +/- 1.5 volt (max) glitch when you plug it in. But it's only nanoseconds long instead of milliseconds as some people were reporting previously. Little enough energy and low enough voltage to totally not be a problem for me.
Also I'm not seeing any sign of the UI bugs that people were reporting.
There are two features though that I would really like to have.
1. The ability to turn on/off the outputs simultaneously by pressing two buttons at once. It turns out if you press two buttons at once it doesn't recognize either of them. It does beep though, just to taunt you.
2. The abiliity to run the logging chart in continuous mode, so you can just keep it running and kind of keep an eye on it or look at it really quick if your board does something odd.
I love the high-res (1 mA) current readout.
It's great for keeping an eye on power consumption as I bring up the various peripherals on the board.
