New Rigol DS1054Z oscilloscope
Miti:
One of the probes that came with the scope is open right at the pin of the BNC connector. They are not even two years opd and saw very little and gentle use. And the warranty is one year for the probes. We have a bunch of Tek probes at work that are used and abused for 10+ years. Do you have similar experience?

I wish they’d hurry up and fix the bugs

The MSO5000 is frustrating. It's so close to absolutely crushing anything out there yet the slow UI and unsophisticated case design are letting it down. I have the feeling that the difference isn't even very significant in terms of NRE and manufacturing.

I have a MSO5000.
I absolutely do not understand how it's UI is could be considered slow.
The Tektronix MSO4034B I have at work running the latest firmware, is far slower and crashes often when I do simple scope usage tasks like just changing the channel voltage scaling.

Moving signals across the screen is very sluggish. That's not really acceptable in a device in this bracket.

Feel free not to buy one.
You'll miss out on getting a four channel, 350MHz, 8GSamp/sec., 400Mb memory, 'scope for under $1000 though.
Your choice. :popcorn:
