This is what you get when a company's hive mind thinks it is beneath them to compete in a particular market section, but the bosses say they have to, because the marketing guys say they have to.
$520 list price for a 25 MHz entry level, hobbyist oscilloscope? I don't think so.
Students? Well, the misguided ones who only know oscilloscopes from their uni's lab and they all happen to be Teks.
Educators? Maybe, and Tek seems to target them with accompanying "education resources" and will likely give them a discount. The five year warranty might also be tempting for educators.
Professionals? If they have a bean counting boss.
