I agree with this in concept. What you're shooting
for above
all is _quality_ of design. My point was that given 2 O'scopes,
One by HP and One by Tektronix (both quality manufacturers)
approx. same condition and at approximately the same price,
I would lean towards the one with the newest fabrication date.
--except if the "newer" one was one of the first all-digital
ones. I love HP scopes, but the first digital ones were
a total flop ergonomically speaking. Knobs are faster and
better suited to the fine motor control of human fingers
than pushbuttons.
