Some forum members find it easy to spend other people's money.

They should have spent an extra 110€ for things they don't need. Whenever my car needs an oil change, I just swap out the entire engine. I mean where are we drawing the line here?

In light of this discussion, the line should be drawn thusly:
When the car needs an oil change, you drive it to the crusher and buy a new one, of course.

Did you make your choice now? I think everything is said now ;-) (well not from everyone) I wonder what your decision is.

What many of the armchair TE jockeys here do not have is the experience to assess an individual buyers needs and of you lot squabbling over brands nctnico is most in tune with this as he has used many brands in his professional career.
The best solution for any buyer is not always straightforward and is certainly not always cost based is best.
Just like selecting a hammer there are many that will do the job and some that are many times better than just a hunk of steel on the end of a handle.
Aside from that the OP is no doubt enjoying these squabbles going by the lack of his participation but no doubt recognizes the advantages of staying with a brand an UI that he's already very familiar with.....that adds up to a significant saving in personal hobbyist time, something we are always short of to pursue our interests.
Brand choice here is not so much the issue but UI so the OP can quickly use a familiar UI in his precious spare time and not return to work on a Monday having to relearn the UI in the scope his employer supplies. His 'at work' performance could also benefit from the ahrs use of a scope very similar to the one he uses at work.

I think you underestimate people. Oscilloscopes aren't that complex to use or wildly different from each other.
Maybe he'll enjoy the simple column of buttons down the left side of Rigols for turning on measurements. It sure beats Siglent's popup-and-twiddle-like-hell system.
