I think I am going to take Paul's advice and avoid older analog scopes. His point about the new scopes having so many ways to trigger and how useful that is really made sense to me. Spending $150-200 more to have record/playback, decoding, and tons of trigger modes really sounds like the better approach. I went ahead and ordered one of the Rigol DS1074Z (on my CC) which I was able to get for $550 and free shipping. One of the decisions to order this is that you can still currently 'unlock' all the options and 100MHz bandwidth by just entering a key into it which can be generated through a website. Seems like a lot of value for the money. I hope it lasts me a long time.
