What about "oscilloscopes" based on USB sound cards?


From what I understand, most people who have tried both, prefer a
standalone scope over a PC based one.

in the $200-500 range.


You can get a very nice, brand new, hobby scope for that kind of
money. The Rigol DS1054Z seems to be available for around $450. That
is a four-channel, 50 MHz scope. It can easily be hacked for 100 MHz
bandwidth.
