Yes we did, but I don't think many people spoke up.

I bought the 16bit version from Saleae some while back (not sure Hadley
had it back then). It was borderline around the free import limit. I
bought the larger one because it has far bigger buffers and I wasn't
sure how much real-time Linux-USB is. Saleae is the only supplier with
a multi-platform[1] design so the choice was very straightforward esp
when considering that they also seem to have the highest user opinions.
