A few years ago I almost got myself into beying a 2465B as it has 4 channels at a decent bandwidth. But I reconsidered, partly due to the BBRAM and U800 dying issues mentioned here, and got a Siglent instead. I kind of miss the cold war aesthetics of those old scopes though. And i think this is the highest end monolithic real time CROs out there. The Tek 7104 goes up to 1 GHz but it is powered by plug in modules. And there is this sampling head with tunnel didoes that captures signals up to > 10 GHz. I am really astonished by what Tektronix achieved half a century ago...
