Then we bought a Siglent SDS2104X. So much better. Still hangs occaisionally with a lot of memory points, but better than the Rigol. I have GWInstek GDS2204E at home. Of the 3 scopes, it's UI is definitely the fastest and most responsive. Well worth the money, to me.

Yep. In Dave's videos you can clearly see the Insteks have the fastest UI response.

The Rigol is the slowest but mostly on the vertical control and you can learn to do it faster. It's all in the finger technique.

Other people might not care!

I guess it depend on how you use your scope. I really don't find myself constantly messing with the vertical controls, so...  :-// Not worth paying $150 extra for.

(OK, the Insteks aren't more expensive than the Rigols now, I'd definitely get the Instek if I was buying a 'scope today)

Guys, just to let you know that today I've finally ordered the ultimate solution to my needs, I believe. Thank you all for your input. I bought Rohde&Schwarz RTC1002-COM2. A promo bundle with 300 MHz and all the options including a logic probe for $1700.
Enjoy in good health  :)
