Can't comment on that one but I have a much older 4ch 200MHz scope from 
Instek, the GDS-2204. I bought it because it had less noise and less EMI 
than a similar Tektronix back then, plus way more memory, at half the price.

Long story short, I am happy with it but the software is quite buggy. It 
also drifts a bit in the baseline but for an RF guy that doesn't matter 
much. Remoting it from a lab bench PC always worked well and made the 
documentation job easier than USB-stick jockeying.
