Tektronix New 3/4-Series Scope (June 4th!)
james_s:
I don't see anything interesting here, it's very rare that I need to use all four channels on my scope, I've never needed more than that on a scope. Clearly I'm not the market this is aimed at though, a lower cost iteration of the older TDS3000 with some modern features like protocol decoding would be a lot more appealing. I like the compact form factor of those.

The no doubt high-ish base price will keep a majority of potential hackers away
Brick a $400 Rigol and it's not a huge loss. Brick a $3k scope and it's a sad day

But the possible gains...............
Maybe you missed this, playing with a $ 3.5k scope:

Yep, "no pain, no gain".
And the playing was done using a "real" Siglent SDS5104X which costs a "little" more than $3.5k...
So playing with a 200MHz Tek to be able to reach a 1.5GHz Tek also sounds very interesting.
