My current feeling for my DSLogic plus purchase is that I threw out the window 130 euros, but as we all know sh*t happens.

You pay for experience with your money and/or time.

Closed source commercial products are clearly the way forward. I recommend you spend time considering Microsoft Plays For Sure, Microsofts many GUI/Web frameworks (e.g. silverlight), Altium CircuitStudio(?), Micro-Cap simulator, Adobe Flash etc etc etc

Hint: there are no real general distinctions between open source and commercial products, but each product has its own relative advantages and disadvantages. It takes hard-won wisdom to choose.

A person can purchase on old huge 30+ kg. logic analyzer that works somehow and can not change anything … and where is the fun with that ?

Anchor boats are far to be of my interest, old LA in particular, they have ridiculous performance in rapport of current standards.

I hope to be wrong, but being the project out from many years and given the importance of current shortcomings the chances to see them solved in reasonable time (weeks, months ?) seem close to zero.

Dunno if you have ever used Pulseview, with all the respect for developers group it could be good for a newbie in conjunction with 10 dollars Cypress 8Ch LA dongle, for a professional is a joke.

Agreed. Both commercial and open source software can be excellent or suck badly. You can't tell before you investigate a particular piece of software.

Commercial products have to satisfy many requirements, if the commercial company fails in that lose customers confidence and go bankrupt, open source projects often are simply training ground for budding programmers.

nctnico:
Sorry, but you are wrong here. There are lots of examples of good open source software. Keep in mind that commercial parties do work on open source software to basically join forces without needing specific agreements to do so. Kicad is one of those examples but there are many more.
