[chbot] USB silly-scope

[Michael Pearce]

The only one >200KHz that I can find close to your price range is off shore
US$250ish

The problem is that if you go over 200KHz the ADC's get very expensive, and
also you need a lot of on board memory for buffering, high speed processors,
Full speed USB 2.0 etc etc if you want it to be close to real time. All
these factors add up to a lot of $$$

I have an Acute Logic analyser that has been very good - but cost  $$$$, but
paid for itself on the first use.
They have a local agent and I believe there scopes are as good. (Probably a
lot cheaper to import than buy through the agent)
