This sort of information is useful. Perhaps a Wiki is the best document, where people can put comments like this. I don't have a Wiki set up myself, but I'd guess the sort of information one would want would be: * Description Described what a TI counter is * Uses No doubt with an emphasis on time nuts uses, but I don't see any need to restrict it just to that. (I did consider using one of mine to record the speed of the traffic near my house!) * Understanding the specifications and their importance. Lots of them. * Items to be considered when purchasing new vs used. * Description of model X Include any options that are available for model X. Also any known issues - e.g. for both the SR620 and 8970B, they do in my experience run quite warm. * Description of model Y * Description of model Z Table comparing specifications between all models * Models worth considering if your budget is < $250 * Models worth considering if your budget is < $500 * Models worth considering if your budget is < $1000 * Models worth considering if your budget is < $2000 * Models worth considering if you budget is unlimited. * Conclusions.
