The Keysight MSOX3104T does it all, including ‘analogue’ things like audio and XY, only better

I looked up the purchase price of that, as can anyone else.

But how much is the household contents insurance for it and does that include "accidental damage"? ::)

If I had one, it would be on my bench too :)

Yeah, for $23K it better be able to make coffee and clean the floors too.  Can anyone say "ostentatious"?  I have some trouble with that after a couple of glasses of wine.

Well, at 1 GHz I guess the closest analog equivalent may have been the Tek 7104 (with 7A29, 7B15 and 7B10)? According to TekWiki that had a list price of $44,510 when it was discontinued in 1990 ($97,900 in 2022 USD).

How many hobbyists do you imagine had one of these in their basement in 1990?

I have yet to be impressed with the experience of "Swiss army knife" style test equipment, too often it tries to do everything and ends up doing nothing particularly well.

So how much does all that cost? How much bench space do you need?
