I have sold most of my '90s stuff - I still have a Tektronix 2465A (best 
analog 'scope ever made, according to many) and a few other bits, but 
selling the older stuff was cathartic - I can now see my workbench again !

Also, the USB kit, whilst in *some* cases not having the performance of the 
lab stuff, is extremely portable. Devices like the ADII and DD show just 
was can be done for just a fraction of the lab gear's cost.
