Absolutely go. I repair these scopes as a hobby and the people at the tek museum have been endlessly helpful. Repairing old tek designs and reading the schematics has made me a much better analog engineer.

You might be right... but I have the impression that if you talked to him, he'd tell you that you'd get similar milage by following his philosophy about program design. It's just that most people just can't stomach it.

A mathematical proof or analytical solution. I understand that analytical solutions only apply for very narrow ranges of problems but... consider writing an analytical solution to a differential equation versus applying a numerical solver.

I have found that the gap in understanding between thinking you understand something and implementing something as a program is often much smaller than the gap between having programmed something and having proven it.

That's a good point. Updating the table might be causing a reflow. Will that prevent updates from causing reflows?

Evernote failed because their product was sub-par. Onenote always provided better organization, better pen input. There were just numerous places in which you could see that man-hours were being placed in the wrong places.
