Ordered my BM786 yesterday via Amazon, it arrived in less than 24 hours (Arizona, USA)
It is blue, it has a rotary knob and some pushy button things. Funny-bad taste after licking one side of it. Strange flavor for sure.
Firmware is 07.

-Cheers!

Please imagine any piece of legitimate electronic hardware that had a warranty comment about "licking & tasting" a new product immediately after out of the box. That would be a first. I hope this (or similar humor) happens at some point in the sake of worldwide humor. I've never seen any humor inside of any product Warranty, Spec Sheet, or within an Owner's Manual ever. When & who will be the first one to do this? Not to discredit any company, item or document, but a single jab of humor, or an Easter Egg within an official document would be nothing other than fun and maybe great PR too? Those darn PR people and the lawyers are crushing our natural sarcastic humor & joy. SIDE NOTE: the Flake 578 DMM watch + Dave + EEVBlog video was very close, but is not included. That particular EEVBlog video was very much appreciated and it was a joy to watch that watch.

No more silly comments from me inside of this thread. I will slowly find my place inside of EEVB places soon. Thanks & good day to everyone.

Apart from Dave's, Jim Williams had several of these throughout the years.

I know some Tektronix's manuals also had funny drawings on them.
