Does anyone remember the HP 1980B Digital O'scope? This had to be the
worst scope UI ever. There was only one knob and buttons for everything
else.

IMO, a good UI should be entirely obvious. I learnt to use a Tek 503 in
about 1963. Everything after that has been obvious, until the

The problem with nested menus is knowing where the dang thing you want is,
or worse, that some setting or other even exists.
Have you explored all the pull-down menus in your browser or Word, or,
worse, Excel or AutoCAD? I know I havn't. An Adventure game is far less
opaque, IMO, and the game is designed to decieve.

That simply is not the case with the Rigol scope. I was able to use it
without opening the manual.

actually increase the number of menus to cater to this
