I got a Philips PM3209* 40MHz too (goes lower resolution in vertical that the Tek), but no space currently.

I bought it for $40 (with original Philips probes and operator manual!) with the FG for 'free'. Display of the FG is not working correctly. Still analysing why it is not working, but got some ideas. Else it works just dandy.
Nothing to be embarrassed about IMHO.
Not at all

This gives you an idea of the space it will be expanded to (850mm x 1800mm bench with cupboards at the bottom with dual 450mm racks on top).

And lots of power supplies.
Got a cheap Atten, and a shit load of wall warts (they count dont they? ;p)
* Pity I cant find a service manual for it
